Thanks for nothing
A woman lent a pair of jerks her cellphone and they repaid her by stealing it then beating her up in an attack on Sands Street on Nov. 5.
The victim was near Pearl Street at 7:05 pm when the two wretches asked to use her phone, but when she handed it over, the louts fled with her cell in hand, police said.
She ran after the thieves and one of the rogues punched her in the face while the other pulled her hair, officers reported. The lady kept chasing the nogoodniks but she eventually lost them, authorities said.
Snatched
Cops cuffed a guy who allegedly snatched a woman’s phone as she was walking on Bridge Street on Oct. 31.
The woman was strolling on the sidewalk near Front Street at 9:05 pm when the suspect and a group of other people — who were not apprehended — approached her, took her phone, and fled, police said.
Bad time
A sneak stole pricey jewelry and a passport from a Bergen Street residence on Nov. 1.

Soul eater
Some reprobate stole a guy’s expensive Jordan sneakers on Bond Street on Nov. 5.
The victim was strolling by Fulton Street at 9:30 am carrying the kicks — which he bought for $160 — when the snake snatched the sneakers from his hand and fled, according to a report.
Bad ride
A filcher stole a woman’s wallet as she was aboard a Downtown-bound A train on Nov. 5.
