Crime Report: Is That A Gun Or Are You Just Faking Me Out of My iPhone?
The Local [Fort Greene/Clinton Hill]

The week featured a lot of the usual crime — including more robberies at the ever-dangerous Atlantic Terminal Mall — and the return of the ultimate criminal pantomime: the use of a finger to simulate the possession of a firearm.
...More Mall Rats
There were at least three more crimes in the Atlantic Terminal Mall last week:
A pickpocket swiped a wallet from a Target customer after she left it on a counter and turned away for a split-second on May 26. The victim, 69, lost cash and various cards in the 1:30 p.m. crime.
A thief swiped a wallet after bumping into a woman inside the Daffy’s clothing store at around 6:15 p.m. on May 27, getting an iPhone.
Another thief has stolen unmentionables from the Victoria’s Secret shop. The manager of the lingerie emporium told cops that he spotted a thief leaving the store with $1,200 in Body Bras at around 4 p.m. on May 25.
