GREENPOINT — A Greenpoint man who invited a woman over for a romantic rendezvous awoke the next morning to find her gone — along with his phone, cash, jewelry and Playstation, police said.

The 34-year-old man fell asleep after an "intimate" session with a woman he knew through mutual friends at his Nassau Avenue home the night of Sept. 4, police said.

He woke up the next morning to find the woman gone — but told police he wasn't sure where the woman lived other than she was from "upstate," police said.

Police said they know the identity of the woman and are investigating. Neither she not anyone else has been charged in connection to the incident.

Other notable crimes that occurred in the 94th Precinct include:

► A 29-year-old man sitting at a bus station was assaulted and robbed by a group of four to five men last week, police said.

The victim was waiting for a bus on Graham Avenue around 2:30 a.m. on Sept. 8 when the men approached him and punched him, causing cuts and abrasions on his left hand and the left side of his body, police said.

The group took the man's backpack, watch, wallet, debit card, earphones and sunglasses, police said.

The victim was intoxicated at the time and opted to go home instead of reporting the incident immediately, according to police.

No one has been arrested.

► An 67-year-old man was shoved and robbed last week after telling a man he didn't have a light for his cigarette, police said.

The victim was leaving his building on Conselyea Street near Lorimer Street around 6:00 a.m. on Sept. 13 when a man, 25, approached him asking for a cigarette light, police said.

When the 67-year-old said no, the suspect shoved him against the building, causing him to fall and strike his forehead to the floor, police said.

The man then ripped off the elderly man's backpack, which contained a Samsung Chromebook, and ran off. No one has been arrested in the incident.
