Worst behavior

Police slapped cuffs on two teenagers who they say attacked security guards at their Ocean Parkway school on Jan. 8, sending one man toppling down a flight of stairs.

A school official told police that the kid suspects, a 17-year-old boy and girl, where at the high school between West Avenue and Shore Parkway at 9:30 am when security guards sensed the odor of pot wafting off of them.

When they confronted the teens, the boy took off running, but ended up battling a guard when he blocked his path at the top of a stairwell, cops said.

The boy grabbed the guard, and dragged him down the stairs, before biting his hand as more security rushed over to assist, according to police.

The girl, meanwhile, was doing her best to resist the guards, and spat viciously at them, cops said.

Parking pirate

A man was arrested for looting another man’s car and then beating him on Brighton Beach Avenue on Jan. 5, police said.

The victim told police that he spotted the suspect inside his car between Brighton Fifth and Brighton Fourth streets at 2:56 pm. The suspect busted through the door, causing about $250 in damage, before grabbing the man’s cellphone and other electronics, cops said.

The victim confronted the suspect as he attempted to make off with the loot on foot, but all he got was a brutal beating from the 26-year-old man, according to police.

Slap in the face

A teenage punk smacked a 51-year-old woman on Avenue V on Jan. 5 and took her cash.

The victim told police that she was between Stillwell Avenue and W. 11th Street at noon when the delinquent waltzed up and slapped her across the face, before grabbing $50 out of her right hand and taking off.

Geriatric attack

A cold-hearted crook hurled a 64-year-old woman to the ground and snatched her phone on Brighton Fifth Street on Jan. 8.

The victim told police that she was near Oceanview Avenue at 12:15 pm when the reprobate pushed her from behind — sending her sprawling to the ground. As the poor lady attempted to collect herself, the coward grabbed her phone from off the pavement and fled, according to police.

Playtime

A burglar looted a woman’s W. 25th Street apartment on Jan. 6.

The victim told police that she returned to her home between Mermaid and Surf avenues at 2 pm, only to find the lock on her door had been busted. Inside, she discovered that two televisions and a Playstation 4 were missing, cops said.

Civic crime

A carjacker drove off with a man’s ’92 Honda Civic he’d left on Neptune Avenue on Jan. 6.

The victim told police that he parked his car between W. 16th and W. 17th streets at 10 pm, and returned later to find an empty spot.
