78th Precinct

Park Slope

Real sicko

A creep beat up a woman at a hospital on Sixth Street on Jan. 14.

The victim told cops she was walking in a hallway at New York Methodist Hospital near Eighth Avenue at 6 pm, when a teenage boy started talking trash — then picked her up, slammed her into the floor, and broke her left arm.

B&R Electronics

MyPhone

A gun-slinging thug snatched a cellphone from a man on Flatbush Avenue on Jan. 14.

The victim told cops he was sitting in a car near Seventh Avenue at 8:15 pm when the jerk climbed into the back of the vehicle, pulled out a gun and said, “Let me see your phone.” He then grabbed the black iPhone and ran away.

Lipstick bandit

A thief stole some girly goodies from a car parked on Flatbush Avenue on Jan. 9.

The victim told cops she parked her car near Plaza Street West at 3 pm then went to Prospect Park. She came back an hour later and discovered her rear window was smashed — and her pink purse and $90 Dior lipstick were gone.

Fishy business

A scoundrel stole some money from his employer on Douglass Street on Jan. 12.

A manager at De Martino Wholesale Fish Market near Fourth Avenue told cops a worker made a $2,200 delivery around 1 pm — then disappeared with the cash.

Bad move

A jerk jacked two laptops from an apartment on Fifth Avenue on Jan. 9.

The victim told cops that, while moving out her belongings at 10 am, she left the door to her home near St. Johns Place open.

She came back the next day and discovered the laptops and a Blackberry cellphone missing.

Free ride

A crook swiped a car parked on Prospect Park West on Jan. 10.

The victim told cops he parked his gray 2003 Honda Accord near 11th Street at 8 pm, then took the train to work.

He came back a few days later and discovered his trusty $2,000 ride gone — with no sign of broken glass.
