Crown Heights Shaitel Store Robbed of $30K in wigs by Career Thief

A career criminal with nearly 60 arrests on his rap sheet burglarized a Brooklyn wig shop and made off with $30,000 in pricey pieces — including some possibly meant for cancer patients, police sources said.

Daron Ware, 52, allegedly hit the Hustle Wig shop on Dean Street in Crown Heights on the morning of March 4, cops said. Police detectives got surveillance video of a man entering the closed shop and walking out with a stuffed sack.

“They took wigs and materials to make the wigs, including hair and some hats and some random things,” co-owner Rivky Krinsky said.

Nine of the stolen hairpieces were valued at about $30,000, around $3,300 for each, according to Krinsky.

Some of the shop’s wigs, which are created from real human hair, are sold to cancer patients, Krinsky said, but she wasn’t sure how many of the stolen wigs were for patients.

“The clients didn’t know because we were able to replace the orders very swiftly,” she said. “We were able to get everything out pretty much on time.”

Cops caught up with Ware on March 13, charging him with burglary and illegal entry, police said.

He’s currently in jail on Rikers Island.
