Police are on the hunt for two men wanted for a string of armed robberies at cell phone stores in Brooklyn and Queens.

Police say the men held up two stores in Prospect Park South and one in Richmond Hill.

In each incident, the suspects showed a gun and made off with cash.

The robberies happened March 26 at a Metro PCS store on Church Avenue; March 30 at a Mobile Wireless Champs store on Liberty Avenue in Queens; and at another Metro PCS store on Flatbush Avenue last Wednesday.

The suspects are described as being in their late teens or early 20's.

Anyone with information about the case is being asked to contact Crime Stoppers by calling 1-800-577-TIPS, by texting TIP577 to CRIMES, or by going to NYPDCrimeStoppers.com.
