WOODSIDE, Queens (WABC) -- Two men wanted for nine separate break-ins in Queens.

Police say the men broke into nine apartments in Woodside over the last three months by picking the locks on the doors.

They got away with computers and jewelry.

Residents and building supers in the area are on alert.

"You don't see this in everyday events, especially like how they went to several other apartment buildings," said Michael O'Neill, the building super.

"They said to be careful and to keep the doors locked, don't let strangers in," said Checho Tsering, a resident.

The men also made off with cash.
