⬛ QUEENS
▀ Floral Park: Ex Galpal Caught Stalking Man With Sex Toy And Sex Pill Shaming Shenanigins

HE GAVE HER the kiss off but she wasn’t about to be dumped without reprisals.
A 48-year-old woman was nabbed going on a campaign to ruin the reputation of her ex beau.
On the night of June 5, the boyfriend dropped the hammer on their affair. He made it clear that he wanted “no further contact with her” and took off for a while.
But while he was clearing his head far from home in the Empire State — the woman went nut-nut.
Over a three-day span, his ex rang his phone 99 times, sent him 57 text messages, emailed him four times and left him five voicemails, the criminal complaint states.
One voicemail was left the morning of June 6.
Sore after the parting of their romance — she informed him that he “fucked with the wrong person” and that if he didn’t return her call with intel about his flight number she was going to go to his home and “dump all of his clothes” and that she wouldn’t leave until “she gets what she wants.”
And hours later she turned up at his home and called him to leave yet another voicemail. This time she told him that she was outside the home and “is not leaving until he comes out or answers her call.”
She ultimately left the premises.
However, late night she texted the man a jarring photo of sex toys. And then she captioned it with her own brio.
Because her voicemails and text weren’t being returned — she was ready to “leave the sex toys outside his landlord’s place with his name on it” in an effort of expose his insolence.
She then pondered the possibility of leaving said sex toys with his parents’ or aunts’ houses.
All of it to unveil “what I am capable of.. To make your life terrible.”
With only silence in return, the clinger continued her character assassination attempts.
The next morning, the woman sent a text that suggested another ultimatum: send her his flight itinerary or she would “leave his sex toys outside his garage.” What’s more, she was already “on her way over.”
A voicemail was left that same day that she was ready to do it. She was going to “leave stuff for him” at his side door unless he calls back.
That if he doesn’t send her tickets she was determined to “keep harassing” him “everyday and make your life miserable.”
The man returned home and there it was — not exactly a bunny boiling in a pot — but a sex toy sitting at his garage door. Not only that, there was a most unsettling cherry on top… a sex pill (Viagra? Cialis?) placed just so on the windshield of his car parked on the street of his Langdale Street home.
All of it warranted some crime fighting action. The woman was brought up for stalking, attempted coercion, and harassment.

⬛ MANHATTAN
▀ Midtown: Teen Stabbed During Double Team Chipotle Dustup

TWO TOUGHS GANGED up on a teen trying to buy a late lunch.
The duo, both 20, engaged in heated words with a 17-year-old waiting in line at the Mexican fast food chain located on 8th Avenue off West 51st Street as he was trying to grab some grub at around 2:45 p.m. on June 15.
Their beef turned particularly violent with the pair roughing up the youth and then one of them manufacturing a knife and stabbing him in the gut.
Cops were summoned to the eatery and found the boy extra bloodied.
They also got there in time to capture his attackers. And collected the knife weapon evidence.
The victim was rushed to New York Presbyterian Cornell Medical Center and stabilized.
The punks were charged with assault and criminal possession of a weapon.

⬛ THE BRONX
▀ Crotona: Trigger Happy Hood Busted In Foot Race Versus Cops
THE SHOTS FIRED off at a fearful man sprinting off to save his hide inspired cops within earshot to give chase.
Luckily, they were in the vicinity of Crotona and East Tremont Avenues the night of June 16.
The 29-year-old shooter apparently lowered his piece when he saw the approaching lawmen and took off.
The officers shouted for him to stop.
He didn’t obey.
The cat-and-mouse lasted a few blocks until the capping off offender slipped and fell.
In the splash, out clattered his Taurus 9mm pistol (tucked in his waistband) across the ground.
For Wild West antics, along with piss poor aim on the open streets — he was cuffed and taken down for attempted murder, assault, criminal possession of a loaded firearm, and possession of ammo.

⬛ BROOKLYN
▀ Fort Greene: Wayward Biker Crashes Into Park Crowd
A WOMAN LOST control of her motorcycle and cold clocked a dozen bystanders in a disastrous crash.
The 53-year-old was riding a three-wheeled Trek motorcycle through Commodore Barry Park back on the evening of June 28.
At some point the woman was unable to tame the machine, losing her handle on the steering — and then plowing into 12 bystanders.
Among the wounded were four critical, including a 73-year-old man.
Eight others (along with the biker herself) hobbled off with minor injuries.
All are expected to survive.
Cops suspect the near curtains collision wasn’t intentional.
The rider was formally charged with reckless endangerment, reckless driving, failure to yield to a pedestrian, and driving with an improper license.

⬛ STATEN ISLAND
▀ Pleasant Plains: Arsonist Fugitive Wall Puncher Brutalizes Senior Trying To Phone For Help
HE MADE HOLES with his fists and then wailed on an old man.
The 34-year-old slugger was steaming inside an Outerbridge Avenue home back on the night of May 13.
It housed a 66-year-old man.
The younger disruptor allegedly first some swings and causing several holes along the living room drywall.
When the owner of the home grabbed his phone to ring for the cops — the iron-fisted demolisher darted toward him, wrestled him down to the ground and swatted his phone out of his mitt.
The victim then tried to block himself while suffering several blows inflicted by the perp.
His violent flurry caused the senior to suffer blows to his face, elbows.
Cops made it there anyway.
And they collared the venting villain who was soon up against assault, criminal mischief, and aggravated harassment.
Turns out the same perp was already in hot water.
He had an active warrant for a failure to appear court date back in December of 2023 involving an arson bust.
