School brawl
Police cuffed two teens who they say punched a younger teen in the face after an argument at an E. 21st Street school on April 12.
All three students were leaving the suspension room at the school near E. 17th Street at 10 am when the 15-year-old called one of the suspects a “crackhead,” according to authorities. The teen told police the two 17- and 16-year-old boys started punching him in the face and told him to “Run your pockets!” and forced their hands in his pockets.
But the two suspects punched the teen again when he tried to push them off of him, police said. The teen was taken to Coney Island Hospital, according to authorities.
Stolen time
A man’s luxury watch was stolen from his Avenue T house while he was at synagogue on April 17.
The 74-year-old victim told police he left his house near E. Fourth Street at 6:30 am and returned at 9 am and noticed the bottom window pane on his rear door was broken.
The man’s ultra costly Audemars Piguet watch with a yellow metal face and black alligator band was missing from its case in his bedroom, according to authorities.
His own fault
A pair of wireless microphones were taken from a company van parked overnight at E. 26th Street on April 17.
The victim told police he forgot to lock the door to his van and left it on the street near Avenue U from 2:30 am until 5 pm the next day, and when he returned, he noticed his two hand microphones were missing, according to authorities.
