THE STORIED 29-POINT deficit that the Knicks were able to come back from — inspired another night of unrest.

The revelers spiraled into rioters resulting in widespread mayhem and a great deal of property damage, along with cops making multiple arrests.

It didn’t matter that MSG nixed the outdoor watch party at the Garden and other frozen zones around the Garden.

The throngs amassed anyway. On this night despite being blocks away on Sixth Avenue in Midtown aonce the orange and blue claimed the W, the bars emptied out and all hell broke loose.

One of the prime provocateurs being sought in the midnight melee back on June 10 was supposedly Livestreaming on his phone (under a milk toast handle and lesser known platform) while probing fan reactions. 

The perp, seen adorned in a referee striped jersey, was wandering around West 35th Street. 

“Spurs we up! Now, we’re winning! Spurs in seven!”

That inspired a rival in the throng to gripe, “Fuck the Spurs!” and “SMD [Suck My Dick]!”

The war of words triggered a kinetic reaction where the the rowdy lot started to engage in fisticuffs. 

A 17-year-old victim deep in the scrum was targeted by several crowd goons stomping, punching, and kicking him while he was defenseless 

The randy referee perp specifically pile-drove the victim — picking him up and slamming him down again. 

So hurt from the gang assault that he experienced a seizure and lost consciousness. 

He was rushed to Bellevue Hospital but remained unconscious.

The Blotter’s messages left to the victims involved in the incidents were not immediately returned.

Police logged 56 people were taken into custody in midtown after the Knicks victory, with 41 people were issued summonses for disorderly conduct and released. An additional 15 people arrested for similar offenses including disorderly conduct and property damage, were processed and sent to court for arraignment.

Among the charges were assault on a police officer, resisting arrest and trademark counterfeit for selling bootleg merchandise.

Cops said other disorder includes an attempt to overturn a taxi, shimmying police vehicles, light poles and scaffold, firing off bottles and fireworks into the wild crowds and several brawls.

Four NYPD department vehicles were targeted and suffered shattered glass and other damage and 10 NYPD cops reported injuries, including one officer who was struck in the head with a glass bottle.

The Knicks, who lead the series three games to one, head back to San Antonio, Texas tonight, for game 5 of the best of seven game series.

Portrait of Ms. Bridget Manderson, who was slain when her head was struck by a cinderblock tossed from her nine-story building.

HE HELPLESSLY WATCHED his girlfriend slain by a cinderblock missile.

And he’s convinced that there was a cover-up at the top of the police perch to protect one of the youngster slayers.

Forty-seven years ago Bridget Manderson was fatally felled by a most bizarre circumstance: a wayward chunk of concrete launched from a Queens rooftop.

It was June 4, 1979, when the 25-year-old model was walking down a set of stairs in an attempt to leave from her building at 7-25 166th Street in Whitestone, Queens.

Her beau, Mounir Badaan, was right by her side.

‘We were both walking down the stairs together and there’s a dog coming up. A dog walking with a couple. And Bridget doesn't want the dog to jump on her pants. So, so I switched places with her. And then when we switched places – then BOOM — the stone fell down.’

Manderson’s boyfriend, Mounir Badaan describing the moment in 1979 when he suffered the loss of his loving girlfriend instantly.

And it was Badaan who suffered the sight of seeing the six-pound concrete cinder block hurled off the rooftop of Manderson’s nine-story edifice as part of a 32-complex Le Havre Apartments completed in the 1950s.

“We were both walking down the stairs together and there’s a dog coming up,” the now 86-year-old man told The Blotter. “A dog walking with a couple.

“And Bridget doesn't want the dog to jump on her pants. So I switched places with her.”

That decision changed everything.

“When we switched places – then BOOM — the stone fell down.”

Indeed, it was a headshot. And it killed her.

At the time, cops probing the homicide said there was no indication that she was the intended target.

The Blotter’s attempts to reach the NYPD for comment were not returned.

Manderson had worked as a showroom model in Manhattan and lived with a female roommate for a year prior to her death.

Neighbors had been crying foul not long before Manderson’s sudden death that there were rascal kids constantly throwing projectiles off the same roof.

But they were the likes of soda cans, bottles and even eats like eggs, muffins, and biscuits.

Never something as heavy as a cinderblock. 

Witnesses living in the building informed detectives that they heard rowdy youths stirring up mischief on the roof prior to the incident and even heard footsteps and running down the stairs immediately following the impact.


‘We're supposed to come back and go to the show [Phantom of the Opera] and we never made it.’

Manderson’s boyfriend, Mounir Badaan, now 76, describing the couple’s planned evening before the tossed cinderblock crushed his girlfriend.

That fact helped piece together the theory that kids were the culprits.

Although a murder charge against the person responsible may require proving intent, police said there is a case to be made for a criminally negligent homicide charge.

"Those responsible have yet to answer for this crime," quoted Queens District Attorney Melinda Katz.

Her office is asking for tips from the public that may provide the break needed to make an arrest in the cold case.

Below is an exclusive Q&A between The Blotter and Manderson’s grieving boyfriend, Mounir Badaan.

THE BLOTTER [TB]: What happened after the incident and through the years?
MOUNIR BADAAN [MB]: Last I heard it was the son of a chief of the police who was up there. And afterward they [the police] covered up everything and they hid everything. So no, nothing happened. 

TB: Have investigators stayed in touch with you?
MB: Never. The weeks after or year after or nothing — nothing happened. 

TB: Incredible.
MB: We tried we tried to sue and everything, but then I just walked away from it.
TB: You did? 

MB: Yes.
TB: Do you remember the day, like how it happened?
MB: I mean, you're talking about 50 years ago.
TB: I understand. I wondered where you both were heading?
MB: We were both walking down the stairs together and there’s a dog coming up. A dog walking with a couple. And Bridget doesn't want the dog to jump on her pants. So, so I switched places with her. And then when we switched places – then BOOM — the stone fell down.
TB: Do you remember what the stone look like?
MB: A big cement block. It was a block from the building.
TB: Okay. 

MB: I thought it fell out of the building and then realized that there was kids on the roof. But the kids, one of the kids was the son of the chief of the police, so and they covered everything up. They did a good job.
TB: And just how do you respectfully, just so I understand, how do you know one of them was a chief of police son?
MB:
Because somebody told me afterwards, I kept trying to investigate what's going on. Nobody could tell me anything, then a friend of a friend. I heard this is what I heard. 
So I don't. Actually, actually, that's not true. Maybe five, six years ago, somebody called me saying they were detective people and said, I know the guy that was involved, and not really go much further than that. TB: The building that you were in, did you stay with her there? MB: No, I was just picking up. 
We went there to change our clothes because we're going to see a show.
TB: Do you remember the show? MB: It was The Phantom of the Opera.
TB:
Were you heading to Manhattan. MB: Because she got dirt on her pants we went back to her place to change. So we had dinner, and then we went there to her house, and then we, we, we coming back.
We're supposed to come back and go to the show and we never made it.
TB: She was a model, right?
MB: Yep. 

TB: How have you been coping over these past years?
MB: That's too much news for me. I give you all I could give you at this moment. TB: Before you go, what do you want to happen?
MB: I want to have justice. That's all. Not because your dad is the chief of the police and you [think you can] do whatever you want. So that's all. 

TB: And and would it be any any consolation to get a hold of somebody that might know like who the person is that potentially tossed the mortar?
MB: I don't know. Don't know anybody. I dropped it a long time ago.
TB: And just to be sure here, no one's ever come forward and apologized in any direct or indirect way?
MB: No. Never.

THERE ARE SO many ways to wrong a person. And for one 20-year-old scumbag, he could probably count them. 

For months starting back on Nov. 5 of last year and up until March 11 — the vermin of a human inflicted all kinds of intimidation towards a former fling; holding over her head their sex videos and dire threats. 

Late night on Nov. 5, the suspect texted the woman his cruel intentions.  

“I will shot a bullet in tour fucking brain and I will beat your ass,” read one, according to the criminal complaint. “[Victim] I da want to put a gun down your throat.”

Months past and the sicko reappeared with another text. 

He allegedly wrote: “I thought [sic] told u to stay away from my bitch…”

He then sent her a video featuring them engaging in sexual intercourse with the woman’s “intimate parts” on full display. 

The woman attempted to dissuade her stalker to disappear for good. 

“Leave me alone,” she pleaded in the Feb. 18 text. “Leave me alone for good, [Defendant].”

He couldn’t take a hint, replying to the woman “You keep saying, ‘Leave me alone!’ because I’ve sat there and cared for you and protecting you.”

The suspect then sent the perp another video again showing them having sex as part of 20 emails sent on Feb. 25. 

‘I’m letting you know I’m sending [sic] whole family along with the rest of your family the videos of me fucking you and the videos of you giving me head in the car cause I will have all of them.’

-Obsessed ex, 20, threatening over a cascade of texts and emails to release sex videos of him and a woman to her family

His actions appeared to only fuel his grotesque confidence. 

“Have fun at the station,” he wrote in a followup email. “[I Don’t Care] about going to jail anymore. 

“You ruined me.”

The silence from the victim sent the perp spiraling. 

“I’m letting you know I’m sending [sic] whole family along with the rest of your family the videos of me fucking you and the videos of you giving me head in the car cause I will have all of them.”

He even doubled down on sharing the videos with the woman’s new boyfriend and his “whole family” so they can watch “your ex putting his dick inside you.” 

The authorities were informed and this aggravated the suspect even more. 

He wrote the woman, “So either call me or the same way you tried ruining my life by going to the cops I will do the exact same now.”

Again, the lack of response sent the suspect spiraling. 

‘Leave me alone. Leave me alone for good, [Defendant].’

-Victim’s attempt to ward off her stalker

And the threats kept coming. 

“I want you to understand if I send [the videos] to his family you won’t be seeing him anymore. 

“If I send it to your school you won’t be attending anymore which ruins your future as well,” the note read. “And if I send it to your father it starts World War 3. But in reality you’ll get into some deep shit.”

After a dry spell of contact, the stalker suspect returned to put on the charm. 

“Come back, love,” the more softer toned note stated. “I made my mistakes and I learned from them all.

“I’d rather try with you a million times before even considering someone new.”

The man’s deranged overtures failed again and again. And so he tried a news strategy: cash. 

On March 11, the perp Zelle’d the woman $100 with the declaration, “Good morning, love.”

Then he upped the amount to $150 with another send. 

The sums were only met by more silence. And then the sound of cuffs clicking on his wrists as he was busted for aggravated harassment, dissemination of publication of an intimate image, coercion, and good old fashion stalking.
