⬛ MANHATTAN
▀ Washington Heights: Couple Caught Packing Several Guns In Car With Bogus Plates
THEY WON’T WIN statues for their covert tactics.
A man, 31, and a woman, 45, was stopped on Amsterdam Avenue and West 177th Street back at around 6 p.m. on Aug. 2.
The pair were riding in a white Acura sedan when a detail ran their license plates.
And they found those plates didn’t match the Acura.
Complicating matters was the fact that the car had guns all over the place as if they had been driving through a ticker tape parade but the confetti was actually guns.
First they found one gun within hand’s reach of the woman passenger.
Then they found six more guns — including five 9mm semi automatic pistols and one silver revolver.
At his Aug. 3 arraignment, the driver pleaded not guilty to six counts of criminal possession of a loaded firearm and one count of criminal sale of a firearm and ordered held on $15,000 bail.

⬛ THE BRONX
▀ Morris Park: Thief Tried Skipping Out Of Rx With Several Rolls Of Toilet Paper And Paper Towels

HE TRIED TO roll a CVS.
A 32-year-old bandit was busted fleecing a CVS for hundreds yards worth of paper.
The perp was spotted inside a CVS store located on Williamsbridge Road late night on Aug. 21.
The store workers saw him swipe several rolls of paper towels and toilet paper from the shelves.
The cops determined the total worth of the paper heist was $54.97.
He was hit with petit larceny and criminal possession of stolen property.
In court, prosecutors sought to get the judge to set a $10,000 bail citing the man’s prior misdemeanor convictions. He was also fingered for bilking a worker’s backpack while he was painting a fire escape.
The judge ordered supervised release and offered the suspect a drug diversion program.
For the solid, the suspect apologized to the judge and thanked her.

⬛ BROOKLYN
▀ Brownsville: Box Cutter Tough Taunts Elder Bike Store Worker ‘I Will Slice You Up!’
A ROTTEN SCOUNDREL showed up to a bike shop intent on throwing down.
The 33-year-old entered the shop on Rockaway Parkway and Clarkson Avenue at around 11:30 a.m. on July 30.
Almost immediately the suspect charged the 66-year-old bike clerk and leveled a series of punches.
The thunderous challenger wasn’t done.
He pulled a box cutter and bellowed, “I will slice you up!”
The threat was fortunately not pursued.
And the punk fled the joint.
The cops pursued the accused and on Aug. 10 they collared him.
He was formally brought up on assault (victim 65 or older), assault of a retail worker, menacing (with a weapon), and harassment.

⬛ QUEENS
▀ Howard Beach: Sicko Pleasures Self While Ogling Man At JFK AirTrain Station
IT WAS ONE of those lousy travel days.
You’re already sweating the lengthy commute to hop a plane and then while waiting for the tram — there’s that pervert grabbing his business and going to town while eyeing you.
That’s what happened to a man on the late morning of Aug. 12 while standing at a station on 159 Avenue and Coleman Square.
The jolly Roger, 32, was reportedly gripping his meat stick in his pants and rubbing himself in an “upward and downward motion” while “staring at him,” according to the criminal complaint.
Cops were alerted to the horndog and cops arrived and then made their approach.
And when they did, the suspect allegedly dodged their questions and even offered a fake name and birthdate.
The officers exposed the perv’s slippery retorts and figured out who he is and his actual pedigree.
He was taken down for public lewdness and false impersonation.

⬛ STATEN ISLAND
▀ St. George: Vandal Nabbed Tagging At Ferry Terminal

Authorities say the suspect was witnessed tagging “SSADOZ” in black spray paint on the bus ramp.
