Atlantic Terminal and Center malls are crime magnets
The Brooklyn Paper, Police Blotter

It appears that the Empire State Development Corporation's master plan for alleviating the blighting influence of crime in the Atlantic Yards footprint is to turn the land over to the man who presides over the neighborhood's center of criminal activity.
Target trouble
The Target in the notorious Atlantic Terminal Mall was yet again the scene of crime last week, when a fast-handed perp stole a victim’s wallet while she shopped on April 19.
The victim told cops that she got to the checkout line at around 7 pm and discovered the missing property when she reached into her pocket to pay. She quickly called to cancel her credit cards and found that the thief had already done some shopping at her expense.
Marshall’s matters
Yet another shopper at the notorious Atlantic Center Mall was burglarized by a sneaky perp on April 19.
The victim told cops that she got to the Marshall’s store inside the mall, which is between Fort Greene and S. Elliot places, at around 2 pm, but didn’t notice that her purse was missing from her cart for another 20 minutes.
