GREENWICH VILLAGE — Three women were nabbed at the raucous West Third Street McDonald's early Sunday morning after they went on a shopping spree at Greenwich Village adult stores using a stolen debit card, police said.
The women used a debit card they allegedly stole from a 28-year-old woman to rack up $360 at the West Fourth Street novelty emporium Tic Tac Toe and $147 at the nearby Sixth Avenue shop Fantasy Party, police said.
Kareen Walcott, Amanda Roman and Tais Bomani were arrested at the 136 W. Third St. McDonald's after 2 a.m. Sunday and were found with two additional debit cards and a green card belonging to the theft victim, police said. It was not immediately clear how cops found the women.
All three women face felony charges for criminal possession of stolen property and identity theft, court records show.
Walcott, 35, and Bomani, 22, were also each charged with a violation for unlawful possession of marijuana. Walcott, Bomani and Roman, 19, were arraigned on Sunday.
Roman's attorney did not immediately respond to an inquiry, and information on Walcott's and Bomani's attorneys was not immediately available.
They are due back in court Friday.
The West Third Street McDonald's has been the site of repeated trouble, including the October 2011 beating of two unruly female customers after they jumped over the counter to attack a worker.
Other notable crimes in this week's NYPD blotter for the 6th Precinct include:
— A woman who left her wallet at a Bleecker Street sweets shop sleuthed out the thief after her debit card was used at a nearby bar, police said.
The 22-year-old woman accidentally left her wallet at Sugar & Plumm Purveyors of Yumm at 257 Bleecker St. on Saturday about 6 p.m. She realized her mistake within minutes but by then her goods were already gone.
When the woman called her bank to freeze her card, she found that a charge had been made a block away, at The Village Tavern, located at 46 Bedford St., police said. When the woman called the bar, a worker said the woman who used the card was still there and the bar called the cops.
Ella Glaser, 26, was arrested at the bar about 7 p.m. Saturday, police said. She was released after being arraigned Sunday and faces felony charges for criminal possession of stolen property and grand larceny, court records show.
Glaser pleaded not guilty, her lawyer said Tuesday, declining to elaborate on the case.
She's due back in court Dec. 11.
— A man broke into a West Village apartment building on Saturday and then argued with police about his right to be there.
An eagle-eyed witness spotted a man climbing over a locked fence behind 18 Grove St., scrambling up a fire escape and climbing through a second-floor window, cops said.
When police found Osman Sannoah, 26, inside the building about 6:30 p.m., he said he had reason to be there.
"I threw my wallet over the fence," he said, according to police.
Sannoah was charged with a felony count of burglary. Information on his attorney and next court date was not immediately available.
— A woman was slashed by a would-be thief early Friday morning outside the CVS at Bleecker and Thompson streets.
A 23-year-old woman had her arm cut by a knife when a man tried to yank cash out of her pants pocket about 5 a.m.
Police arrested Matthew Calendar, 31, and found a knife in his back right pocket and a bag of a substance believed to be cocaine in his front right pocket, cops said.
Calendar was hit with a felony charge for attempted robbery with the use of a deadly weapon, plus misdemeanor charges for criminal possession of a controlled substance and criminal possession of a weapon, court records show. He was arraigned Friday, held on $5,000 bail — which was posted Saturday — and is due back in court Wednesday, records show.
Information on Calendar's attorney was not immediately available.
