▀ Inwood: Sicko Flashes And Attempts To Rage Elderly Woman

A PERVERT EXPOSED himself to a senior and then attempted to violate her, authorities say. 

The 33-year-old degenerate trailed an 83-year-old woman into her apartment complex located on Vermilyea Avenue and West 204th Street back on the morning of Oct. 26. 

He followed her all the way to her apartment and that’s when he slithered up to her doorway and dropped his pants to show off his privates. 

That wasn’t all.
He then proceeded to force his way into her home and press the woman to have unconsensual sex with him.

Fortunately, old lady fended him off and slammed her door. 

That sent her attacker scampering off. 

The woman was treated for minor injuries from the horrific encounter. 

And while investigators failed to track down the suspect that day. 

But they cuffed him on Nov. 8. 

He was taken down for attempted rape, assault, burglary, stalking, and attempted sex abuse.

▀ Claremont: Brute Choked Baby Mama Then Wrecked Her Home

A LOWLIFE POPS barged into a woman’s apartment and put his hands on her throat and squeezed then destroyed several valuables. 

The 31-year-old goon had compromised the woman’s home on Findlay Avenue on the morning of Nov. 23 of last year. 

It was then that authorities say the suspect charged at the mother of his child and choked her. 

After he inflicted enough pain on her, the suspect went wacko on her stuff. 

That meant splitting open the television set, and then he smashed a game console into two pieces, according to the criminal complaint. 

He also took the woman’s hairdryer and caused it to become “inoperable”. 

The tough was nabbed and hit with criminal obstruction of breathing, criminal mischief, and harassment.

▀ Bedford-Stuyvesant: Noose Hanging ‘Artist’ Defends Stunt As ‘Meant To Evoke Feelings’

A TONE DEAF provocateur thought he was making a masterpiece by dangling a human body-like figure from a noose. 

The  a sidewalk an

grated enough passers-by with a most affronting display. 

The 34-year-old creator of the trite work caused a ghastly response midday on Oct. 25 was proud of shocking people walked by on Herkimer Street. 

They were offended by the figure whose neck was hanging by a noose from an overhanging tree. 

When the cops found the suspect he told them that it was all intentional. 

That he wanted “people to know that people are still being lynched.”

And what’s more “does not care how people feel” because the noose and body is “a piece of art” and art “is meant to evoke feelings.”

The proud installation creator punched himself in for aggravated harassment.

▀ Ozone Park: Fugazi Cabbie Took Fare For A $500 Ripoff To Go From JFK Terminal 1 To Terminal 4

A TOURIST WAS hosed out of a bundle by a scammy hack who forced him to pay a king’s ransom to drive three terminals. 

The out-of-towner told cops he was swindled at around 2 a.m. on July 1 in front of Terminal 1 at John F. Kennedy Airport. 

He described the driver as a bespectacled man dressed in black pants and a grey collared shirt driving a dark colored minivan. 

That guy along with a man riding shotgun solicited (or snookered) him to get a ride over to Terminal 4 of the same airport for a fee. 

The eye-watering cost to go a short distance a couple terminals away could have taken him by air to Turks and Caicos. 

The ask was $497. 

But the traveler didn’t have that kind of cash on hand. 

Not a problem, the crook cabbie assured him. 

So he took the man to a Citibank branch about three miles away located on Rockaway Boulevard to withdraw the sum. 

CCTV captured the oblivious man trying to pull the cash from the machine to no avail. 

The deviant driver then pressed the man to send him the funds using the Zelle cash transferring app. 

And he complied — moving all $497. 

Yes, the passenger made it to Terminal 4.
And perhaps it was a clip before he realized he’d been hoodwinked. 

But the cops got involved and by Oct. 26 they found the minivan hustler and collared him for petit larceny, fraudulent accosting, unlawful solicitation of ground transportation services, and unlawfully steal the property of another.

▀ Arrochar: Ghoul Orderly Caught Manhandling Austistic, Cerebral Palsy Patient

Those include caring for the patient with an assortment of daily activities such as eating, bathing, and dressing. 

What transpired on the time and day in question — saw the orderly yell, grab and then throw the patient onto a couch and then onto the ground, causing a concussing head wound. 

Responding cops arrived to bring the aid into custody. 

He was charged with endangering the welfare of an incompetent or physically disabled person, endangering the welfare of a vulnerable person or an incompetent or physically disabled person, and assault.
