62nd Precinct
Bensonhurst—Bath Beach
Stabbed in the back
A sweatshirt-clad scoundrel shanked a 24-year-old woman in the back on 71st Street on May 10.
The woman was between 16th and 17th avenues in Bensonhurst at 10 pm when the knave knifed her mid-back, police said.
The coward, who was wearing a black hoodie and black backpack, ran toward 17th avenue, a police report states.
Blind-sided
Violent villains knocked out a man on 65th Street on May 11 — and continued to kick him while he was down.
The victim told cops he was between 24th Avenue and Dahill Road at 11:05 am when someone socked him in the face with a metal object. He went down and one or more miscreants started kicking him, leaving tennis shoe marks on the man’s battered body, a police report states.
Ravages of aged
Police arrested a 79-year-old man for allegedly trying to slash a fellow oldster with a box-cutter in a Bensonhurst train station on May 2.
The 69-year-old victim was leaving the D train station at 62nd Street when the senior suspect demanded his shopping bag, police said.
The alleged aggressor lunged at the younger man, but the spry sexagenarian parried with his bag, and the suspect ran off empty-handed toward 61st Street and New Utrecht Avenue before cops caught up with him, according to the police report.
Lousy kids
A troop of teens may have stolen a bunch of jewelry from an 88-year-old woman’s 64th Street home on May 8.
A neighbor saw 10 whipper-snappers coming and going from the house between 15th and 16th avenues in Bensonhurst around the time the tokens went missing at 7:45 am, police said. Whoever did it got in by busting a basement door, a police report states.
Salt in the wound
A pilfering prankster put the final devious touch on an Avenue P burglary by gluing his victim’s locks shut on May 8.
The victim returned to her home between W. Second and W. Third streets in Gravesend at 9:30 am to find the front door lock’s cylinder glutted with glue, law enforcement sources said.
A police officer got the door open and the homeowner found her house ransacked. The sneak climbed in through a fire-escape window and took $200, jewelry and electronics, a police report states.
