Wild shot

An armed assailant shot a man as he was ordering dinner in a Graham Avenue pizza shop on Nov. 10.

The victim told police he was ordering pizza inside the eatery between Seigel and Moore streets at 11:30 pm when a man shot at him from outside. The bullets hit the 22-year-old victim on the left side of his back and his left leg.

Emergency services arrived and took the victim to Bellevue Hospital for treatment. Police have not arrested a shooter.

Clean freak

A thief in need of clean clothes broke into a Broadway laundromat overnight on Nov. 11 and stole $50, plus several pounds of dry-cleaned clothing.

The owner of the dry cleaner and laundromat between Kent and Wythe avenues told police that someone broke into the store sometime between 11 pm on Nov. 11 and 7:20 am on Nov. 12. The burglar got away with 50 dry-cleaning orders as well as $50 in cash.

A pedestrian found some of the clothes on the corner of Kent Avenue and S. Sixth St. and returned them to the laundromat.

Rolling in the deep

A gang of thugs assaulted a teen and stole his rollerblades on Moore Street in the early morning of Nov. 15.

The victim told police that he was talking on the phone while at the corner of Broadway at 4:25 am when a young man walked up to him and punched him in the face. After the first punch, four other guys ran up, ripped the teen’s shirt off his body, and grabbed his backpack off his back. They also smashed his phone on the ground.

The victim told police that he does not remember much about the assault, but does remember the goons kicking him while he was on the ground. Then the gang ran off with his rollerblades, phone charger, book bag, and blue Yankees hat. The victim walked to the 90th Precinct and filed a police report.

No money for you

A pair of bumbling thieves tried to steal money out of a Wythe Avenue automatic teller machine on Nov. 15 — and failed.

Police checked survelliance cameras near the cash machine, which is chained to a storefront near S. Eighth Street, they saw footage of two men wearing hoodies and masks attempting to break into the machine at 3:50 am, but failing.

The owner of the machine told police that it is broken.

Bicycle thief

A guy on a bike attacked a woman on Knickerbocker Avenue on Nov. 16 as she was walking home from a bar, and stole her cellphone.

The victim told police she was near Ingraham Street at 6 am when the robber rode up next to her and pushed her to the ground.

Then he grabbed her phone out of her purse, got back on his bike, and rode northbound on Morgan Avenue.
