Two Elmhurst men have pleaded guilty to stealing from Long Island Rail Road riders.
Dorin Husa and Niculae Petre admitted their involvement in a scam that targeted railroad ticket machines.
Prosecutors say the duo, along with three others, used cameras and credit card skimmers at several LIRR and Metro-North stations.
The district attorney says the group stole more than $70,000 in total.
