Police have arrested a Brooklyn woman for allegedly pulling off a string of burglaries in Bushwick, and they are still looking for a man who they say helped her.
Police say surveillance video shows 21-year-old Sapphire Soto and a male accomplice loading a cart outside Taqueria Jimmy Express on Knickerbocker Avenue near Suydam Street on October 29.
Investigators say they stole $50 in cash and bags of bottled beverages.
Police also say the pair also stole $10,000 worth of eyeglasses from a store down the block that same morning.
Soto is also accused of stealing thousands of dollars in cash and merchandise from Maxout Discount Store and Grocery on Irving Avenue near Linden Street. Police say she and the man robbed the store twice over a one-month period.
Her alleged accomplice is still at large. He was last seen wearing a dark jacket over a hooded sweatshirt with light-colored pants and sneakers.
