Pants thief
A 21-year-old woman was arrested for shoplifting from a store in Kings Plaza on Avenue U on Oct. 7 — and attacking guards who tried to stop her.
A security guard told police that he was inside the store between E. 54th and E. 55th streets at 3 pm when he saw the suspect grab three pants and five shirts and stuff them into her purse.
When the witness and another security guard attempted to prevent the suspect from leaving, she bit one of the men and punched the other in the face, police said.
Bloody beat down
A 16-year-old boy participated in the beat down of a man on E. 31st Street on Oct. 5, according to police.
The victim told police that he was near Filmore Avenue at 8:30 pm when the suspect and at least eight accomplices attacked him without warning, pushing him to the ground before beating him bloody with a hail of punches and kicks.
Shaving off costs
Police arrested a 30 year-old man who they say stole electronics, face wash, and shaving supplies from a Kings Highway store on Oct. 6.
A witness told police that she was inside the store between Avenue H and E. 49th Street at 11:36 am when she saw the suspect grab shaving gel, face wash, a headset, and Duracell batteries, before attempting to leave the store without pay. When police arrested the suspect, they found him in possession of a four-inch blade, cops said.
Big talk
A 35-year-old man was arrested for threatening a woman’s life while baring a gun on E. 49th Street on Oct. 5.
The victim told police that she was between Avenues L and M at 9:20 am when the suspect approached her, gun in hand, and uttered the threat: “I hope you’re glad that your mom runs her mouth, because you’re going to die tomorrow because of it.”
