NYPD DAILY BLOTTER
Manhattan
This man is wanted for knocking a Harlem bicyclist to the ground — killing him.
The attack occurred last Friday at about 5 a.m., just before Juan Espinoza-Navarrete, 21, was found in a pool of blood on West 133rd Street near his bike.
He died later at St. Luke’s Hospital, and cops initially believed he’d been hit by a car, but a witness said he’d been struck by an attacker from behind.
An elderly priest who spent 44 months in jail for his role in a $7.4 million Brinks robbery was the victim of a check-kiting scam, cops said yesterday.
Gladys Patino, 19, a resident of an East Village shelter for troubled teens run by the Rev. Patrick Moloney, forged the priest’s name on 13 checks totaling $3,990 from March 31 to April 20, officials said.
Moloney, 77 — who allegedly has ties to the Irish Republican Army — noticed the checks missing and went to cops, who arrested Patino on grand-larceny charges.
In November 1994, Moloney, who runs the Lazarus Community Bonitas House on East Ninth Street, was convicted of conspiracy to possess $2 million from a 1993 Brink’s armored-car robbery.
A creepy ex-con who molested a Greenwich Village tanning-salon manager was arrested after police found him in the back of the store naked in a tanning bed, authorities said.
Donald Cameron, 34, allegedly began groping the 25-year-old manager in the salon at 4:15 p.m. Thursday.
The victim fled and called 911. When cops arrived, they found Cameron in one of the tanning beds, sources said.
Brooklyn
A Bushwick pushcart vendor was busted for assaulting a rival peddler, authorities said yesterday.
An allegedly intoxicated Celso Vidal, 47, ordered the 66-year-old vending rival to leave the vicinity of Knickerbocker Avenue and Harman Street at noon Sunday, sources said.
Vidal then smashed a bottle on the victim’s head, causing injuries that required seven staples, a spokesman for DA Charles Hynes said.
A suspect who stabbed a Bay Ridge man was busted after trying to file a police report against the victim, authorities said yesterday.
Sources said Subhi Bakri, 21, who had been hanging out with the 24-year-old victim’s 16-year-old sister, got into a fight with the man.
Bakri allegedly pulled a knife and repeatedly stabbed the victim in the hip, chest and arm at Eighth Avenue and 69th Street at 8 p.m. on July 12.
Bakri was arrested Monday.
Bronx
A thug fatally shot a man in Bedford Park, police said yesterday.
The assailant approached the 21-year-old victim at East 203rd Street and the Grand Concourse and opened fire.
The victim, whose name was not released, died at St. Barnabas Hospital.
Staten Island
A registered sex offender from Louisiana was busted in the burglary of a West Brighton church after police found his DNA at the scene, authorities said yesterday.
Robert Martin, 38, allegedly smashed a window at Sacred Heart Church on Castleton Avenue near North Burgher Avenue at 10 p.m. on June 2.
Martin climbed inside and cut himself breaking open the donation box to steal $50, sources said.
Police recovered blood from the scene and matched it to his DNA, the sources said.
He was arrested Monday.
