Cops are looking for three crooks in Middle Village who stole a woman’s wallet and then used her credit card at a Brooklyn store.
According to police, at 6:25 p.m. on Nov. 19 a 60-year-old woman was walking in the vicinity of 86th Street and 60th Avenue when two unknown women approached her from behind and tried to take her purse.
