Broad daylight snatch

The Brooklyn Paper, Police Blotter

How much more evidence of blight will the Empire State Development Corporation (motto: Open for Business!) need before it starts eying Bruce Ratner's crime-ridden malls?

Target trifling

Watch your backs, Target shoppers. Thieves continue to stalk the aisles of the Target at the Atlantic Terminal Mall.

• A superficial shoplifter was seen trying to get away with over $900 worth of beauty supplies on Feb. 6. The greedy shopper also tried to steal electronic equipment and almost $100 worth of candles in the 6:15 pm swipe. An employee called the cops, and the perp was arrested by Officer Desmond Dempster.

• Another thief grabbed a lady’s purse from her cart on Feb.6. The victim said that as soon as she turned her back at around 5 pm, a thief stole her wallet from her bag and got away with her cash.
