BRONX - Cops are looking for a gang of 7 who broke into a Bronx U-Haul rental company and stole 2 vans.





The NYPD have identified seven suspects in last month’s theft of commercial vans. Police released surveillance video of the suspects riding an MTA bus to the crime scene.




At around 10:40 pm on September 4, the gang is seen on surveillance video walking onto the grounds of the U-Haul rental location at 1365 Bruckner Boulevard.

The thieves then drove the vans off the lot to parts unknown.
