As reported on OTBKB: one of the muggers from Sunday night’s mugging was arrested when he was identified by the victim in Prospect Park that night. Today Gowanus Lounge reports that the perpetrators of the other incidents in a rash of recent muggings may still be at large.
An email via Park Slope Parents says that a 78th Precinct Detective says the case is still “open.” The email goes on to say that “from what I’ve heard it’s not yet a done deal.” In the meantime, the latest crime statistics from the 78th Precinct actually show only one reported robbery from December 31-January 6. There were 17 during the last 28 days, which is one more than during the same period a year ago
