Car buster
A nogoodnik robbed a woman’s car and used her bank cards on Foster Avenue on Jan. 26.
The woman parked her car at her boyfriend’s house between E. 57th and 58th streets at 5 am and received a call from her bank alerting her of fraudulent activity on her account, according to cops.
Then she went to check her car and found that a malefactor had busted her car window and taken her handbag, including her debit card, passport, Social Security Card, birth certificate, and driver’s license, police said.
The victim also told cops that the thief used the card for $81 at Staples and made two more unsuccessful attempts at two different pharmacies.
