60th Precinct
Coney Island—Brighton Beach—Seagate
Bad date
Some wacko stabbed a man not once, not twice, but five times as the victim was on a romantic romp with his girlfriend under the boardwalk in Brighton Beach on Dec. 31.
The victim told police that he was embracing his “Russian girlfriend” under the boardwalk by Brighton Sixth Court at 12:40 am when the deranged knife man appeared suddenly and started stabbing.
After plunging his blade five times into the victim, the crook nabbed $100 and the man’s cellphone before fleeing, cops said.
T-shirt choker
Cops busted a woman and a 17-year-old boy who they say choked a woman with a T-shirt inside her friend’s W. 25th Street home on Jan. 3, before taking her wallet that contained $90 and gift cards.
The victim told police that she left her bag inside the bedroom of her friend’s apartment between Mermaid and Surf avenues at 12:25 am, and returned a few minutes later to find one of the suspects going through her wallet.
As she confronted the suspect, the woman grabbed a shirt and wrapped it around the victim’s throat, before passing off the wallet to her accomplice, cops said.
Bad fare
Two knaves robbed a cabbie at knifepoint inside a Neptune Avenue parking lot on Dec. 28.
The victim told police that the perps hailed him on W. 24th Street near Mermaid Avenue, where he picked them up and took to Neptune Avenue between W. 35th and W. 36th streets at 7:30 pm. After pulling up there, the crook riding shotgun pulled a knife, cops said.
“Give me the money,” he snarled.
The victim then forked over $90 and his phone, which the two weasels snatched before fleeing on foot, according to police.
Watch out
A gunman and his accomplice robbed a man on Ocean Parkway on Dec. 31, taking his watch.
The victim told police that he was near Shore Parkway at 12:10 am when the crooks jumped him. One of the fiends slugged him in the face, while the other man drew a pistol and threatened to blast the victim, cops said.
As the victim lay beaten and cowed, the crooks snatched the watch from his wrist and fled, according to police.
Have a beer
A malignant rascal hurled a glass bottle at a man’s face during a party inside a W. 23rd Street apartment on Jan. 3.
The victim told police that he was inside the apartment near Neptune Avenue at 4 am, where he was arguing with another man. Then, without warning, a glass bottle smashed into the victim’s face, cutting open his eyebrow and sending him to the hospital, cops said.
Geriatric attack
Cops busted a man who they say attacked a 67-year-old man on Brighton Beach Avenue on Nov. 28.
The victim told police he was near Ocean Parkway at 2 pm when the suspect shoved him and scratched him a few times on his left hand.
Bling burglar
A man was arrested for ransacking an Ocean Parkway apartment on Jan. 2, taking gadgets and jewelry.
The victim told police that the suspect broke through the front door and into his pad between Brighton Court and Avenue Z at 4 am. Once inside, the suspect grabbed all the loot he could carry, including electronics and bling, before fleeing, cops said.
