Four on one
A criminal quartet jumped a 16-year-old on E. 40th Street on March 31, taking $120, his cellphone and some jewelry.

In a lot of pain
A thug with a revolver raided an Avenue N pharmacy on April 1 — taking an assortment of painkillers.

The thief then fled, not harming anyone.
Investigators believe the thief was the same man who raided another Avenue N pharmacy near E. 34th Street on March 17.
Grocery grab

Stabbed and robbed
A knife-wielding thug attacked a 28-year-old on Flatbush Avenue on March 16, stabbing her repeatedly during the bloody mugging.
The victim was between Avenues K and L at 2 pm when the thug lunged, stabbed her in the arm, and then ran off with her electronics.
Masked men sought
A crew of mask-wearing thieves are being sought for at least two area robberies.
