Two burglars sneaked into Spider-Man star Kirsten Dunst's posh NYC hotel suite and swiped her $13,000 handbag, wallets, cash, cameras and an iPod.

The heist occurred just minutes after Dunst, actor Simon Pegg and an assistant left the penthouse in the Soho Grand Hotel shortly after 4:45 a.m. Aug. 9 to wrap up shooting for her new film, How to Lose Friends and Alienate People.

According to the New York Post, Jarrod Beinerman and an accomplice took a guest elevator to the floor below Dunst's suite and then took a freight elevator up to the penthouse level.

Beinerman then allegedly walked through an open door into the 25-year-old actress' penthouse suite and stole items including $2,500 in cash, a Marc Jacobs purse, wallets containing credit cards and ID cards, several purses – one valued at $13,000 - two digital cameras, a cellphone and an iPod.

Authorities have since recovered credit cards, ID cards and the cellphone.

On Tuesday, cops busted Beinerman, 33, as he left Brooklyn Supreme Court, where he was facing pending heroin-sale charges. The second suspect hasn't been caught.

Beinerman has an extensive criminal record, including two federal drug convictions in the late 1990s related to his role in a cocaine-distribution ring and to subsequently possessing narcotics in prison.

The Post reports that Beinerman's personal MySpace page showed he last logged onto the site Monday - the day before his bust. His "mood" setting on the page indicated he was "worried."

The page also plays the 50 Cent song "I Get Money" for visitors, and under "interests," there are pictures of money stacks.
