$3 MILLION Car Theft Ring BUSTED AFTER FLASHING WADS OF CASH ONLINE

Six people  pleaded guilty last week to dozens of charges relating a spree of burglaries targeting car dealerships, cell phone stores, and ATM businesses in the New York area

New York Attorney General Letitia James announced the convictions, saying the brazen crew often posted images of themselves on social media with the spoils of their crimes.

“The six individuals convicted and sentenced went on a crime spree that impacted businesses and residents throughout downstate New York,” said James. “These burglars left a trail of broken glass, smashed businesses, and dangerous high-speed chases in their wake. I thank my partners in local law enforcement for their coordination and support as we took down this dangerous crew. Our communities are safer now that these six individuals have been brought to justice.”

James said the crew would often wait until police responded to a burglar alarm and then lead officers on wild high speed chases.

Willie Baines, 47; Josepher Cartagena, 27; Brandon Collazo-Rivera, 26; Justin Herrera, 23; Douglas Noble, 29; and Alexander Santiago, 28; allegedly stole cars, cell phones, other merchandise, and cash valued at more than $3 million, including at least 54 vehicles, James’ office said.

They pleaded guilty to various charges of grand larceny and burglary and were given undisclosed sentences.
