Crook-mas
A knife-wielding ruffian attacked and robbed a delivery guy in the hallway of a Ninth Street apartment building on Dec. 25, according to a report.
The worker said he had just dropped off the goods and was headed out of the building between Second and Third avenues when the maniac punched him in the face and said, “Give me all your money.”
The mugger pulled $80 out of the poor sap’s pocket, then demanded even more money, cops said. Just then, a neighbor opened his door and the robber, spooked, fled toward 10th Street on Second Avenue, according to the authorities.

Taking Back Samsung
A pair of teenagers robbed a man on an F train in Park Slope on Dec. 22, but gave up the loot when he gave chase, cops said.
The Manhattan-bound F train was at the Seventh Avenue stop when one of the suspects, estimated to be about 15 years old, held the door open as his accomplice grabbed the victim’s cellphone from his hand, according to a report.
The man ran after the delinquents, chasing them down the platform until one of the teens tossed the Samsung phone onto the tracks, where officers eventually managed to recover it, law enforcement officials said.
