Cell wall
A group of thugs robbed a teenage boy as he waited for a train at a subway station at 62nd Street and Fort Hamilton Parkway on Jan. 21.
The 15-year-old victim told cops he was waiting for a Coney Island-bound N train at just after 8 pm when the five teenagers walked up to him and asked for his cellphone. Surrounded, the victim calmly did as he was asked, and the suspects hopped on the departing train with the $300 phone.
Bling blung
Someone burgled an 86th Street home of some major baubles on Jan. 22.
The 51-year-old owner of the home, which is between 13th and 14th avenues, said he left his house at around 11:30 am to do some grocery shopping. When he returned less than three hours later, he noticed part of his front door was broken and more than $8,000 in jewelry was gone from inside.
