Police searching for pair of Valley eye glasses, computer thieves

PHOENIX — Valley law enforcement agencies continue to search for a pair of burglars who stole eye glasses and computers in separate instances.

The first burglary happened on Thursday, Aug. 14, 2014, at approximately 4:30 a.m., when the two suspects entered a LensCrafters located at 2330 N. 75th Ave. in Phoenix. Silent Witness reports the two removed several pairs of eye glasses. Only one of the suspects was caught on video surveillance.

And then on Thursday, Sept 4., just before 6 a.m., the duo allegedly entered an Excel Vision Eye Care business at 5425 E. Bell Road in Scottsdale and again took several pairs of eye glasses as well as computers.
