Attention Pathmark shoppers!
The Brooklyn Paper, Police Blotter
by Claire Glass
With Bruce Ratner's Atlantic Center and Atlantic Terminal malls once again dominating the weekly crime reports, it's a safe bet that blight-for-hire firm AKRF could make a compelling case for condemning the real estate developer's property. Except their specialty is manufacturing blight where it doesn't exist.
Attention shoppers
A razor-blade-wielding shoplifter sliced and diced a Pathmark employee on Jan. 25.
The victim, who works on Fort Greene Place between Atlantic Avenue and Hanson Place, told cops that he was trying to stop the hungry shopper around 10 am when his assailant chopped his face with the blade.
The perp escaped empty handed.
More Target trouble
A scandalous squad shoplifted over $1,000 worth of electronics from the Target at the Atlantic Terminal Mall in a stealing spree that allegedly started on Dec. 18.
Officer Richard Gong put an end to the thievery on Jan. 26, cuffing the trio at noon.
...Shoe-in
A sneaky sneaker collector stole 15 pairs of kicks from the Discount Shoe Warehouse on Flatbush Avenue on Jan. 30 — but he didn’t put much mileage on them before he was arrested.
A security guard at the shoe store reported that the perp nabbed over $1,000 worth of footwear at around 5 pm.
