Gang-arang
A trio of bullies attacked a teenager on Havemeyer Street on June 19, seriously injuring him, police said.
The 15-year-old boy reported that he was at Borinquen Place at 5:30 pm when the three punks attacked him. They beat him in the head with fists and a baseball bat, and kicked him in the neck and face, according to cops.
The attackers scrammed and the victim was taken to a hospital with a broken jaw and multiple skull fractures, officers reported.
Step outside
A goon attacked a man and tried to rob him as he was leaving his Clymer Street apartment on June 20, according to the authorities.
The 30-year-old victim said he was leaving his apartment between Bedford and Wythe avenues at 9:30 pm. As he was locking the door, the lowlife came up from behind and grabbed him, cops said.
“Give me your wallet,” the bandit demanded several times, police stated.
When the victim turned around, the lout punched him in the side of the head and hopped into a green or blue sedan with Connecticut plates, law enforcement officials said.
Taxi collider
Police arrested a cab passenger who they say attacked his driver on Scott Avenue in the early morning of June 22.
The driver said he drove the suspect to the corner of Meserole Street at 4:47 am, the two got into an argument, and the accused got out of the cab and threw a Snapple bottle at the driver’s-side window, smashing it and gashing the cabbie’s face.
Emergency services took the victim to Woodhull Medical Center and police arrested the defendant and charged him with assault, police said.
A few seconds flat
A lousy neighbor stole a woman’s purse out of the stroller she had left in a Throop Avenue building hallway on June 22, a report says.
The 27-year-old victim said she was getting ready to head out of her building between Broadway and Middleton Street with her baby at noon and put the stroller outside of her apartment door for a moment.
When she stepped into the hall a moment later, her handbag was gone and, with it, $50 in cash, her cellphone, and a credit card.
Passed out
A prowler broke into a woman’s McKibben Street apartment and stole her laptop computer while she was passed out drunk with her front door unlocked on June 21, officers said.
The 20-year-old victim recounted that she arrived at her apartment between Bushwick Avenue and White Street at 2:30 am after a night of drinking and forgot to lock her door. When she woke up a half an hour later, she found her the device gone, cops said.
Money on his mind
A pick-up artist went home with a S. Fourth Street woman on June 21, and stole from her and her roommate, law enforcement officials reported.
One of the victims, a 29-year-old woman, said that she met the scoundrel in a Manhattan bar, they returned to her abode between Keap and Hooper streets at midnight, and as soon as he was in the door, the fiend asked to go upstairs to use the bathroom. After waiting for a while for the rapscallion to come back, the woman went to look for him and found him gone — along with her and her roommate’s laptops, according to a report.
Rough customer
Police arrested a worker who they say slammed his coworker with a heavy door at a Harrison Avenue construction site on June 20.
The 49-year-old victim told police that he was working in the site between Wallabout and Gerry streets at 8:40 am and got to an argument with the accused.
As the suspect was leaving, police say he threw the steel door shut on the fellow’s hand. Police arrested the 50-year-old suspect and charged him with assault.
