'I'll be out on bail in 24 hours' - Suspect in NYC armed robbery spree issues warning

The NYPD arrested two men early on Tuesday morning after an armed robbery spree that spanned three New York City boroughs over a period of several hours.

But one of the suspects is already confident that he'll quickly be back on the streets due to New York's bail laws.

"I'll be out on bail in 24 hours.  I'll be out on bail," one of the suspects said as he was placed into the back of an unmarked police car.

Police say the robbery spree started just before 1 a.m. in Corona, Queens.  Two females were robbed of jewelry on Alstyne Ave.

A few minutes later the same two men are accused of robbing two people inside the lobby of the Woodside Motel on Queens Blvd.  The victims had their cash and wallets taken.

The next crime took place at about 1:45 a.m. in the Williamsburg section of Brooklyn.  A man was robbed of his cash and wallet on the street at N.11th Street and Wythe Ave.
