Sax crimes
A Washington Avenue man is playing the blues after a fiend stole his saxophone on July 7.

The blow hard was last seen wearing a black fedora, police said.
Struck out
A brute walloped a teen on the arm with a baseball bat on Tillary Street on July 15.
Authorities said the 19-year-old victim was strolling near Prince Street at 5 pm when the lout smacked her on the left arm with the bat.
Walking woes
Some sneak stole a woman’s phone on Classon Avenue on July 12.
The woman was meandering with her friends near Myrtle Avenue at 10 pm when the nogoodnik reached into her right back pocket, took her phone, and ran, cops said.
Mom issues
An irate reprobate robbed a man on Flatbush Avenue on July 13 after accusing him of being unfaithful to his mom.
The victim told police he was near Fulton Street at 2 pm when the lout came up to him and growled, “You’re doing my mom dirty, I’m gonna break your jaw. You got 10 minutes to hand over your stuff or I’m gonna destroy you.”
The victim then handed over his wallet, phone, and gold ruby ring, according to a report.
Can’t catch a brake
A rogue stole a man’s fixed-gear bicycle from his car, which was parked on DeKalb Avenue on July 15.
The scoundrel broke into the vehicle through the driver’s-side door and took a black Free Wheel Fritz two-wheeler with white rims, according to a police report.
