60th Precinct
Coney Island—Brighton Beach—Seagate
Can’t sleep
Three unruly brutes beat a guy up after he asked them to keep their racket down outside his Avenue Z apartment window on April 27.
The three were hollering on the street outside the window of his apartment between Shell Road and W. Third Street around 1 am when he told them to keep it down, cops said.
Later, he went out for a cigarette, and saw one of the loudmouths still in front of the building. But when he went to go confront him, the other two jumped him from behind. One of them cut his face with some kind of weapon, police said.
The guy opted to walk to nearby Coney Island Hospital for treatment instead of calling the cops, but hospital personnel called it in from there.
Chain-swinging snake
Police arrested a man who they say violently beat a woman with a metal chain while she was walking her dog on Bayview Avenue on April 26.
The woman was walking her pup between W. 33rd Street and Neptune Avenue a little after 3 pm when the suspect came at her with the chain, according to authorities. He hit her repeatedly, only stopping at one point to choke her, before fleeing, police said.
Cross commuter
Some cretin punched and spit on a bus driver during a trip on Ocean Avenue on April 26, police said.
The commuter hopped on the B1 bus at the Marlboro Houses, but lost his cool when the driver passed Coney Island Hospital around 3 pm and did not heed his demand to stop — instead letting him off at the corner of West Avenue.
The hothead harangued him on the way out before punching and spitting on him, according to police.
Playground pilferer
A sneaky thief snatched a woman’s bag off a park bench near Seabreeze Avenue on April 30, police said.
The nogoodnik struck sometime between 12:30 and 1:40 pm while the woman was playing with her kid on the playground at the park near Surf Avenue. Whoever did it got away with $100 in cash, some credit cards, her identification, and her pocketbook.
