Puns all around when reporting about a man who chewed through security cables to steal some watches. The Journal News: "A Tarrytown man with strong teeth and an appetite for jewelry was arrested Saturday after police said he bit through security cables to steal four watches from Sears in the Galleria mall. The toothy theft occurred shortly before 2 p.m., when security guards at the store told police a man walked to the fine jewelry department and gnawed through the security cables of four watches, worth a total of $119.96." Gregory Brown, 21, was charged with petty larceny; WCBS 880 can't resist adding, "White Plains police commissioner David Chong says Brown has an appetite for jewelry."

Video: Help Find the Brighton Bazaar Killers
Cops want your help finding a bald man who may have been involved in the killing of former Brighton Bazaar owner Vladimir Tolstykh last year. In March two hooded thugs beat the purveyor of salty salads and blini to death, stealing thousands of dollars and Russian candy, says the Daily News. His widow Rita, who’s taken over the Brighton Beach grocery, thinks it was an inside job. "Somebody knew the whole schedule—how it worked, what time he came in," she said. Now police have released surveillance footage of another man fleeing the scene and are offering a reward of $32,000 for tips leading to his arrest. Take a crack at it: call (800) 577-TIPS or report online. Video after the jump.
