This is why I would never fight a mugger. Just give ‘em what they want. Stuff can be replaced.

A few weeks ago, I got a notification on the Citizen app of a mugging/assault at Joralemon and Furman between midnight and 1am.

True, and thieves usually aren’t the sharpest knives in the drawer, but robbing someone under the cover of darkness would have made more sense in terms of being spotted. Hope they find the robber anyway.

should have kept moving and yelled “can’t help you, neely!”

Why broad daylight? Opportunity. At 6:33am it’s all but deserted and exactly the right victim comes along – someone carrying a laptop bag.

That’s surprising, even by the standards of BBP-related news. I jog down that block most mornings around that time and it’s always peaceful. A few other runners and dog walkers out but rarely any shady-looking characters. I wonder why the perp decided to strike in broad daylight.
