CARROLL GARDENS — An intoxicated woman smashed her boyfriend over the head with a glass vase on Smith Street last week, police said.

Jocanta Lombardo, 38, was arrested Jan. 29 after injuring the 49-year-old victim just before midnight at an address between Baltic and Butler streets, police said. The attack left the man with cuts on his head and left ear, police noted.

The victim, who was taken to Long Island College Hospital, also had defensive wounds on his right arm, police added.

Other notable crimes in this month’s blotter at the 76th Precinct included the following from police sources:

► A robber stole $400 from a man after threatening him with a gun on Second Place in Carroll Gardens last week, police said. The culprit approached the victim from behind between Smith and Court streets about 6:20 p.m. Feb. 1 and said, “Drop the cash” and “Don’t look behind and run,” police said.

The 42-year-old victim turned around and saw the man grasping a silver handgun in his waistband, police said.

The victim placed the cash on the ground and walked away while the robber, standing about 5-foot-10 inches and weighing about 150 pounds, fled, police said.

► The side mirror of a 2013 Honda car was damaged between Jan. 31 and Feb. 1 after it was parked overnight on Carroll Street between Van Brunt and Columbia streets, police said. The car was parked with the broken mirror facing the sidewalk and not the road, police noted.
