A PAIR OF piecers were fingered for marking their handiwork on Manhattan’s territory on two separate occasions.

One suspect, 28, allegedly was recorded on CCTV back at around 3 a.m. on May 9 cloak-and-daggering around the subway station at East 14th Street and Union Square West.

He was seen in the video in a black jacket, white shirt, green pants, and brown sneakers using a black paint marker that he jotted on an MTA pillar.

Cops made the tagger from a previous graffiti bust back on July 6, 2024.

Another expressive one, 25, was also caught on camera after getting his tag up at around 12:45 a.m. on April 28. Footage from surveillance cameras shows the suspect around the vicinity of Second Avenue where he cradled a spray can and pieced “BYLS” in white paint on a closed metal storefront shutter.

Cops also knew the suspect from a previous pickup on Feb. 4 of last year.

Both painters were formally charged on Dec. 1 for criminal mischief, making graffiti, and possession of graffiti instruments.

HE’S GOT A mean streak.

A 43-year-old salty man keeps quarreling with neighbors. The bouts are turning into ugly dustups involving cops and hospitals.

Just past midnight on Dec. 1, the suspect was engaged in a dispute with a 25-year-old neighbor.

The younger one, perhaps a tad idealistic, tried walking to the madman’s apartment to talk it out.

But suspect was keen on reaching a a.

Rather, he allegedly was in battle mode and when the door flew open, the man allegedly struggled with the peacemaker and then shived him in the elbow.

After suffering the blow — the victim sought help. The initial responding police officers attempted to get the stabber to exit his apartment.

He refused.

The stalemate compelled the NYPD to entreat its elite Emergency Service Unit (ESU) members. A standoff resulted to extricate the suspect barricaded inside the home.

By 2:30 a.m. ESU members took the door and took the man out of his flat. He was brought up on assault and weapons charges.

The incident came months after the same man’s temper allegedly got the best of him.

On June 9, the same suspect was wielding a sizzling hot pan while at loggerheads with a couple people.

A 62-year-old woman recalled the man’s freakout.

“I was walking, and I guess he was arguing with some people, but I just ended up in it,” she told The Blotter. “It was oil with water, I guess, because it was still so greasy.”

She said the suspect erupted and then “threw it”, she recalled.

And despite getting struck by a few scattered scalding bubbles of oils launched from the man’s pan — the woman doesn’t blame him.

The woman noted, “It wasn't like he intentionally threw it on me. And I wasn't the one out there trying to irritate him or whatever was going on.” Still, her not being the target didn’t assuage the pain. “Yeah, but it burnt real quick, but it didn't burn long,” she said.

The poor bystander went to the hospital to be treated for the burn injuries and said personnel “rinsed me down” and then needed to “shave my hair”.

The suspect was met with formal hits for assault and weapons possession.

And even still, she said though the pan grease tosser was “going down for his own crimes” she feels that he is “also one of God’s children” and doesn’t harbor any ill will.

“I forgive him,” she said.

HE MADE GOOD on his threats to splash a woman’s nudes.

A 22-year-old demanded a woman pay up or she would be played out for all to see.

The early riser (because extortion doesn’t keep cushy hours) allegedly sent texts messages demanding wads of cash, according to the criminal complaint.

It was around 7 a.m. on Nov. 23 when the waking woman received a most vexing missive: “Give me money. Zelle [sic] me, Zelle [sic] me, or I will send the video out.”

It was understood by “video” it meant releasing to public eyes intimate footage.

To appease the raider, the woman transferred $800 to her blackmailer.

It must not have been enough.

Because the suspect allegedly uploaded the video online anyway.

He allegedly sent it out through a messaging application, text messages, Go Chat, and Instagram, the complaint states.

Authorities came down on the exposer with charges of grand larceny (to get property through extortion), public display of sexual material, aggravated harassment (threat and physical contact.

HE INTERRUPTED SUNDAY Catholic mass to hustle some scratch. 

A 64-year-old cash-strapped man pounded on the doors of St. Mary Star of the Sea and St. Getrude Church while a Spanish language mass was taking place. 

It was around 9:30 a.m. on Dec. 21 when the impious perp knocked up a storm outside the steeple located on Beach 38th Street off Beach Channel Drive. 

“I want the money,” the suspect, holding a knife, allegedly barked at the 78-year-old deacon. 

The church’s disciple refused him and slammed the door shut without giving the thief a penny. 

Police arrived and when they caught up to the alleged shakedown pauper, he allegedly admitted to the stickup. “I took out a knife and I tried to rob the guy,” he stated, according to the criminal complaint. 

When frisked, the cops pulled a knife from the deviant’s jacket pocket. The authorities say he also took credit for showing the deacon his knife. 

The alleged robber was taken away and charged with robbery (with a weapon) and criminal possession of a weapon (with intent to use). 

The local is no stranger to being on the wrong side of the law, having racked up 25 priors including two dings for robbery and several for drug possession dating back to 1983.

BURNING WITH FURY, a man took vengeance.

At around 4 p.m. on Nov. 26, a 24-year-old was inside a home on Fort Place and raising Cain.

Authorities say the suspect’s conniption had him reaching for a candle and launching it at a rival.

The literal flamethrower’s aim was true and it hit a rival in their head and ear — causing bleeding.

Officers showed up a day later and took the man down to be processed for assault, weapons possession, and harassment.

THEY CAME IN heavy and greedy.

Three hoods donning face coverings stuckup a bodega at 11:30 p.m. on Tuesday.

As one perp chambered a round in his pistol — the others went for the tills.

Ultimately, the three were in the back while one worker held up his hands.

They spoke Spanish and warned the clerk they would shoot if the registers weren’t opened.

The clerks complied.

And the three took off with $3,100 and jewelry from one of the workers.

They remain outstanding. A $5000 reward is being offered by the United Bodegas Association to aid in the bandits’ capture.
