Claws come out on Hendrickson Street

Hendrickson cat fight

A 33-year-old woman was arrested on June 12 after she was caught grappling with another woman inside a home on Hendrickson Street.

Police did not disclose what sparked the fight, but said that when they arrived at the address, which is between Avenues T and U, at 5 pm, they found the two women fighting with each other.

The victim told police the two of them were in a heated argument when the suspect took a swing at the other woman — but missed.

She then lunged, wresting the other to the ground.

Cops charged the 33-year-old with assault in the third degree, criminal mischief and resisting arrest when she refused to be handcuffed and tried to kick out a police cruiser’s windows.

Fearsome two-by-four

A man ended an argument with another man on June 10 by taking a swing at him — with a two-by-four.

Police said they were called to Utica Avenue between Avenue M and N in Mill Basin after the 18-year-old suspect struck his victim in the head with the piece of wood.

The suspect was apprehended a short time later, trying to drive out of the area with a suspended license, officials said.

Cops charged him with menacing and criminal possession of a weapon.

Scratching the surface

Beware of women with steak knives in their purses.

A Flatlands family learned this the hard way on June 8 when a 24-year-old threatened to cut an East 34th Street resident with the knife, then used the blade to “key” a Mercedes 550 parked outside.

Police said that the 24-year-old suspect was arrested two days after all the action, which took place between Avenue I and Flatbush Avenue.

E. 55 wig out

Cops were called to a Flatlands home on June 13 after a 22-year-old went ballistic during an argument.

Police said that the young man was arguing with another tenant at the address between Glenwood Road and Avenue H at 11:39 am when the suspect struck the other man with the heel of his hand.

He then threw a chair at his opponent, but the chair missed its target, instead smashing into a window.

The suspect also broke a mirror during his tirade before cops arrived and charged him with assault in the third degree, criminal mischief, menacing and harassment.

Invasion investigation

Cops are continuing to search for the gun-toting thug who forced his way into a Marine Park home on June 3, robbing the woman inside.

Cops said the victim was sitting inside her Kimball Street abode, which is between Avenues U and T, when the unidentified male entered, pulled a gun and demanded she hand over her ATM card and PIN.

The man then tied the woman up with duct tape and ran off.

Cops are asking anyone with information about this incident to come forward. Calls can be made to the 63rd Precinct at (718) 258-4411. All calls will be kept confidential.

Followed and stabbed

A blade-wielding thug wanted the last word in an argument with a 24-year-old on June 2, police said.

The victim said the argument with the 20-year-old stranger started on Glenwood Road near East 59th Street in Flatlands at 11:10 pm.

He thought the argument ended when he stormed off, but his opponent followed him for a short distance, then jumped him, stabbing him in the stomach and arm.

Help wipe out graffiti

As the ongoing war against graffiti vandalism continues, cops are offering a $500 reward to anyone with information that can help them arrest neighborhood vandals.

The hefty reward is part of the city’s ongoing push to rid New York of graffiti, the leading quality of life complaint brought to police.

Anyone with information about graffiti vandalism in their neighborhood is urged to contact either 311 or 911.
