Police say the masked men seen in the footage are behind a total of 40 burglary incidents - three in Brooklyn, 28 in Queens and nine in the Bronx.

They say in each robbery, a group of three or four masked men breaks into businesses and takes the ATM, coin machine, merchandise and cash from the register.

The spree began with the first robbery which was reported on March 21. The last robbery took place on June 3.

Each incident took place in the overnight and early-morning hours.
