Bike thug
A two-wheeling goon snatched a Bay Ridge woman’s bag on Senator Street on July 27, police say.

The victim said she and her friend were between 67th and 68th streets at 4:30 pm when the two goons ran up and grabbed her gadget. The woman said she and her companion pursued the dastardly duo, only to have the crooks hurl a glass bottle at them. The victims said they were unhurt, and the villains escaped in a silver Audi.
