A customer at a trendy Thai restaurant on Seventh Avenue had her purse stolen off the back of her chair when she wasn’t looking on April 4.
Cops say the thief entered the restaurant, which is between 10th and 11th streets, at around 8 pm and grabbed the 27-year-old woman’s purse.
In addition to her iPod and $25, he got a credit card that he promptly used at a gas station on Fourth Avenue and Union Street, cops said.
Bad help
A worker got so angry at his boss that he hurled a rock and an electric drill battery at his employer on April 3.
According to police, the employee, 29, got into a “dispute about money” at around 7:45 pm in front of a house on Seventh Street between Eighth Avenue and Prospect Park West.
“I hate you, you piece of s—t!” the man allegedly yelled before becoming violent and tossing the items at his 24-year-old boss.
Cops later arrested him and charged him with assault, criminal mischief and menacing.
Eighth hell
A thief broke into an Eighth Avenue apartment sometime between March 18 and 20, stealing a computer and jewelry, cops said.
The 58-year-old resident of the building, which is at the corner of Fourth Street, told police that the unit was unoccupied between those dates, when the thief apparently broke in through a rear window and stole the computer and $200 in jewels.
Knocked down
A thug knocked a woman to the ground and stole her cellphone in a horrifying attack on Union Street on April 2.
Police said that the 6-foot-2, 220-pound thief ran up to the 25-year-old woman while she was walking between Seventh and Eighth avenues, and knocked her to the ground.
While she nursed lacerations on her forehead, he ran off with her mobile phone.
Phone gall
Another person — this one a 12-year-old girl — had her cellphone grabbed from her hand on the same day while she stood on the corner of Fifth Avenue and Fourth Street, cops said.
The tween told cops that she was on the Sidekick cellphone at around 3:30 pm when a 5-foot-8, 170-pound 15-year-old boy ran over and took it.
