The bust in Fairfield County comes after months of investigating and working with the FBI, and law enforcement departments across the region.
The two crews worked the Fairfield and Westchester areas, Greenwich Police Capt. Mark Zuccerella said.
There have been more than 70 burglaries in Greenwich since 2021, they added.
Zuccerella said the crews have targeted Greenwich for the past five years.
"To combat this, we have developed good relationships with Connecticut and New York law enforcement agencies to help," Zuccerella said.
The crews work by having the suspects enter the US and commit several burglars in an area, and then leave, returning to their country of origin. more at8 Suspected 'Tourist Burglars' Targeting Westchester, Fairfield Counties In Custody, Police Say | Cortlandt Daily Voice
