Bay Ridge—Dyker Heights
Filcher on the roof
A lowlife used a rooftop perch to raid a Fifth Avenue apartment and stole $750 in cash sometime between Jan. 2 and Jan. 6, authorities say.
The victims said they left home at 5 pm on Jan. 2 and returned four days later at 8:20 am. Their homecoming gift: they discovered the villain had gotten atop the building and swung in through one of the rear windows, and rifled through their desk and took their dough.
Under the wheel
A crook jacked the rims and tires off a car parked on 84th Street on Jan. 9, according to cops.
The victim told police he parked his sedan near Seventh Avenue at midnight, and returned seven hours later to discover his treads and flashy add-ons gone.
Escape artist
A burglar broke into a 67th Street apartment through the fire escape window and made off with a stash of jewelry and cash on Jan. 7, police state.
The victim said he left his home between Sixth and Seventh avenues at 10:30 am and returned four hours later. On arriving, he found his bling and bills missing.
Pushover
A fiend shoved a Fourth Avenue store clerk to the floor and lifted $1,364 from the register on Jan. 10, police report.
The victim said the brute barged into the bodega between 92nd and 93rd streets at 7:15 pm and threw him to the ground. The goon then grabbed the cash from the till. When the worker tried to stop him, the punk punched him in the face and scrammed.
Blockhead
Two thugs bashed a Fort Hamilton Parkway internet cafe owner on the braincase with a cinderblock and stole his cash register on Jan. 12, cops state.
The victim reported that the concrete-wielding crooks came into his cafe between 62nd and 63rd streets at 6:10 am. One smashed him on the head with the building cube and — when the store owner threw up his hands to shield himself — broke his arm. The accomplice then grabbed the register, with $200 inside, and the dirty duo fled the scene.
