Bridge too far

Bridge mug

A bike-riding bad guy mugged a 31-year-old woman while she walked across the Williamsburg Bridge on June 16.

The pedal-pushing perp — who wore a bandana over his face during the stick-up — confronted the victim near pedestrian entrance at the corner of S. Sixth Street and Bedford Avenue at 10:30 pm.

“What do you have?” the crook asked as he pulled out a black handgun.

The victim forked over $100.

Photo-graft

Cops nabbed four teenaged girls suspected of heisting a 14-year-old’s camera on June 16.

The perps grabbed the victim’s digital camera in the park at the corner of Lorimer Street and Throop Avenue at around 5:25 pm, but police locked up four suspects as they attempted to flee the scene, reports indicate.

Time crime

The crook confronted the victims at the corner of Union Avenue and Wallabout Street at around 3:35 pm and asked the time.

The crook fled only after both of the victims handed over their fancy phones.

The perp grabbed the MacBook from Atlas Cafe at around 11:05 am and fled from the coffeehouse, which is between Hope and Grand streets, in a gray sedan.

Bad delivery

Armed thugs held up a deliveryman in a terrifying June 21 stick-up.

The crooks — who wore red masks during the robbery — confronted the victim in the hallway of a Moore Street building and put a black firearm to his head.

The victim handed over $100 and Chinese food (valued by cops at $26) and left the building, which is between Humboldt Street and Bushwick Avenue.

Meserole burgs

Thieves ransacked a Meserole Street apartment building on June 19, looting at least three residences in the same edifice, which is between Graham Avenue and Humboldt Street. Here are the shocking details:

• Crooks snatched jewelry and cash from one unit while the 57-year-old resident was at work between 7:30 am and 3:15 pm.

Once inside, the thieves locked the door behind themselves with a security chain and stole rings, earrings, a bracelet, and $500.

• The burglars tore through a neighboring apartment between 8 am and 5 pm and got a gold necklace, gold rings, and gold earrings valued by cops at $1,100.

• The crooks also desecrated a 33-year-old’s apartment, heisting his electronics and leaving their mark in graffiti on his living room wall. They also got a computer monitor and a jar of coins valued by police at $200.

Second stick-up

Cops nabbed a 16-year-old suspected of mugging a Williamsburg woman at gunpoint on June 19.

“Give me your bags,” the gun-toting goon demanded as he pulled out a black firearm.
