Early AM shooting in McCarren Park!

Shots at McCarren

A gun-wielding hooligan shot at a group of hipsters in McCarren Park and injured a man on June 18.

The wounded man told cops that he was inside the park — which is at Driggs Avenue and Lorimer Street — at around 1 am when the jerk approached on a bicycle and started shooting, apparently at random.

The victim was hit two times, one bullet in each leg, and the jerk fled.

Mean muggin’

Three thugs were arrested for attacking a 16-year-old kid and stealing his cellphone on Bayard Street on June 18.

The boy told cops that he was near Lorimer Street at about 3:30 pm when the three perps — all minors themselves — approached and punched him repeatedly in the face and back of the head.

One of the perps grabbed the victim’s phone, and the three fled — but cops caught them later.

Glassholes!

Four jerks were arrested after one of them randomly smashed a glass bottle on a man’s face on N. Sixth Street on June 16.

The victim said he was in his car near Wythe Avenue at about 12:55 am when he got out to investigate his parking job. That’s when the four hooligans ran up with the bottle, one thug cutting up the victim’s left eye.

The assailant and his crew left in a green minivan, but cops later arrested them.

MacBurglary

A brute stole a computer after kicking in the door on an Engert Avenue apartment on June 18.

The renter told cops that she heard a loud noise from the third floor of her (apparently huge) apartment, which is between N. Henry and Russell streets, at about 10:30 am. When she investigated, she found her front door had been damaged and her laptop was missing.

Sticky fingers

A sneaky suspect slipped the wallet out of a woman’s purse on Bedford Avenue on June 16.

The 60-year-old victim said that she felt her purse being unzipped as she exited the L-train station at N. Seventh Street.

When she looked inside, she discovered that her wallet was gone — and with it, money and credit cards.

But nearby was a man looking suspicious, so she asked if he had done the deed.

“I don’t do that sweetie,” the man replied.

Whoever committed the crime used one of the credit cards to buy a $45 Metrocard at the station.

Ugly but unseen

A madman broke through the second-story window of a Jewel Street building overnight on June 18, taking a television.

The maniac eventually made his way into an apartment, which he entered by kicking in the front door between 9:30 pm and 7:30 am.

He left with a television from the apartment, which is at Meserole Avenue.

A steal?

A thief stole tools and tires from a commercial parking lot on Roebling Street overnight on June 18.

The criminal hopped a six-foot fence and broke into a vehicle in the lot sometime between 5 pm and 8 am. Once the vehicle, he stole various tools and even stole the tires.
