The Local [Fort Greene/Clinton Hill]
by Kyle Thomas McGovern
It way a typically unquiet week in Bruce Ratner's woeful Brooklyn malls...
Pickpocket Strikes
A pickpocket stole a 32-year-old woman’s wallet at the Target inside the Atlantic Terminal Mall at 3 p.m. on Aug. 8 and made a $20 purchase at the Bath & Body Works inside the shopping center with the woman’s American Express card, police said. The woman reported the theft on Aug. 23.
Cold Stone Crime
A 28-year-old woman’s wallet was stolen from her purse at the Cold Stone Creamery inside the Atlantic Terminal Mall between 2:15 p.m. and 3 p.m. on Aug. 26, police said. The crook quickly made two purchases totaling $115 on two of the woman’s bank cards, according to cops.
Purse Theft
Someone dipped into a 19-year-old woman’s purse at the Marshalls store on Atlantic Avenue, between Fort Greene Place and South Portland Avenue, police said. The victim told cops she left her purse in her shopping cart at 9:45 p.m. on Aug. 24, and when she later opened it, she noticed her drivers license, Bank of America debit card, two MetroCards and some cash were missing.
