The two bumbling men who allegedly burgled the Brooklyn Heights brownstone of former “Felicity” star Keri Russell and another nearby resident have been ordered to stay away from the women.
Ronald Swindell, 50, was told not to go near the actress, while he and his nephew and purported partner-in-crime, Steffon Swindell, 19, were both told to steer clear of 70-year-old Roberta Weisbrod during an arraignment in Brooklyn Criminal Court Thursday.
Ronald was charged with stealing Russell’s MacBook laptop, Filson bag and jewelry during a heist in the wee hours of Wednesday morning.
Both Swindells were charged with a separate burglary of Weisbrod, whom prosecutors said called the police after Steffon robbed her and escaped out her living room window.
“Those orders are on behalf of Roberta Weisbrod and Keri Russell,” the Brooklyn criminal court judge ordered.
Ronald – who has three prior burglary convictions — was remanded as a repeat offender. His teenaged sidekick was given $50,000 cash bail.
Russell got her stuff back fewer than 12 hours after the break-in, and praised NYPD cops for their “awesome” work.
The actress – who plays a spy in the FX hit “The Americans” – had been asleep in the basement of her Hicks Street home when she was jolted awake by two voices.
She rushed upstairs to find her bag, laptop and a necklace and earrings missing. Cops said the thieves entered through an open first-floor window.
After hitting Russell’s house, the uncle and son tried to pull off the same stunt two blocks away.
According to the criminal complaint, Weisbrod found Steffon standing in her living room, and watched as he brazenly approached her and took her laptop off her desk before climbing out a window.
She then saw him walk to the street, where Ronald was holding two bicycles. The duo then took off on the bikes, according to the complaint.
Ronald was busted as he rode a bike on a sidewalk at Clinton Street and Atlantic Avenue at 5:42 am. He was holding Russell’s property when he was nabbed, according to the complaint.
