90th Precinct
Southside–Williamsburg
Cold cash
Some freebooter smashed his way into a S. Fifth Street restaurant on Feb. 13 and made off with a box filled with cash that was stored in the fridge.
Surveillance video shows the baddie take a hammer to the glass front door of the eatery near Wythe Avenue at around 6:58 am, cops said. The rogue then walked behind the bar and pulled a metal container out of the refrigerator, which the victim says held about $1,000, according to a police report.
The burglar, who left his hammer at the scene, was wearing a large black coat, red pants, and a white scarf around his face, police said.
Sweet ’n’ low
A knave trounced a guy outside of a Flushing Avenue bakery and ran off with his jacket and a haul of tools on Feb. 13.
The victim told cops he went to the store between Broadway and Throop Avenue at 4 pm for pastries, where some guy asked him for $50, then followed him inside and then out to the corner once he left.
At that point the victim wandered back to the bakery, but the villain followed again, and when he exited for a second time, the brute punched him in the face and snatched his jacket and tools he had on him — including a hammer and a power drill — before fleeing in a dark gray car, police said.
Smoking gun
A scoundrel snagged a wad of cash and smoking goods from a Graham Avenue smoke shop in broad daylight on Feb. 13.
The troublemaker walked into the shop near Avenue of Puerto Rico at 1:38 pm, police said. When the shopkeeper stepped around the counter to assist him, the perp forced the victim back behind the counter and shoved him to the floor, authorities said.
The rogue then pulled out a black gun and snatched up $600, plus some cigars and rolling papers, before fleeing in an unknown direction, according to a police report.
Caveman beats lady
A baddie beat a woman over the head with a rock inside a Scholes Street building on Feb. 8 before snatching her purse and fleeing the scene.
The lowlife smashed the woman across the forehead with the stone several times while she was in the residence near Leonard Street at 10 pm, leaving her with cuts across her forehead, police said.
The cad then grabbed her purse from her shoulder and ran in an unknown direction, according to a police report.
The victim went to a nearby hospital where she received treatment for her injuries, cops said.
Razor burn
A villain cut a guy across the face with a razor during a spat on Graham Street in the early morning of Feb. 11.
The victim told cops he got into an argument with the cretin near McKibbin Street around 3:20 am. The savage then whipped out a razor blade and cut the victim across his cheek before running down Graham Avenue towards Boerum Street, authorities said.
