Bay Ridge—Dyker Heights
Gone for the holidays
A burglar stole an estimated $11,400 in jewelry from a 101st Street home sometime between Dec. 23 and Jan. 2, cops said.
The resident left the house between Third and Fourth avenues in Bay Ridge at 7:30 pm that Tuesday and returned at 10:30 pm the following Friday, police said. The thief broke in through the front door and made off with the goods some time during that span, a police report says.
Computer jacked
Someone stole a computer from a delivery truck parked on Fifth Avenue on Dec. 29, according to the authorities.
The driver left his ride between 76th Street and Bay Ridge Parkway in Bay Ridge at 4 pm and returned at 4:30 pm to find that someone had removed an internal computer valued at $2,950, police said.
Time bandit
A no-goodnik punched a Fifth Avenue pharmacy’s security guard in the face on Jan. 4 and made off with some watches, officers said.
The pugilistic shoplifter grabbed the timepieces from the store between 76th Street and Bay Ridge Parkway in Bay Ridge at 7:06 pm and tried to walk out, police said.
When the guard confronted him, he socked him and fled in a black sports utility vehicle, a police report states.
Gone in a flash
Someone snatched a digital camera from a guy waiting on the R train platform at 86th Street and Fourth Avenue on Dec. 29, law enforcement officials said.
