Really scary carjacking on Atlantic
The Brooklyn Paper
by Natalie O'Neill
The only thing more monotonous than the daily snow or icefall is the steady drumbeat of crime in Bruce Ratner's Brooklyn malls.
Target trouble
There were two more thefts at the Target in the troubled Atlantic Terminal Mall last week:
• On Jan. 26, security guards told cops that a crook walked out of the store, which is on Atlantic Avenue near Flatbush Avenue, without paying for about $1,700 of fancy electronics.
• Four days later, a crook stole a pretty wallet from a shopper.
The 32-year-old victim told cops she put her wallet in the front pocket of her backpack at 2:30 pm. She soon noticed the pocket was unzipped and her purple, glittery wallet — which was filled with five credit cards — was missing.
