Bowlmor strike

There was an assault inside Bowlmor Chelsea Piers, at Pier 60, on Sun., March 17, police said.

Around 1:15 a.m., a female employee reportedly got into an argument with a woman. The beef turned physical when the woman punched the employee in the head.

The worker suffered minor cuts to the left side of her head and had hair pulled out. She refused medical attention at the scene.

The attacker fled in an unknown direction. The suspect is described as black, 30 years old, 5-feet-4-inches tall, and with short straight hair. She was last seen wearing blue jeans and a black jacket.

 

Ran light

There was a drunk-driving incident on the evening of Fri., March 15, according to a police report.

Just after 11 p.m., an officer observed a man driving westbound on W. 14th St. without his headlights on while talking on his cell phone, who then ran a red light at Ninth Ave.

The man was stopped and given a Preliminary Breath Test, or PBT, which yielded a 0.10 result. Anything above 0.08 is considered legally drunk.

The man reportedly told the officer, “I only had one drink.”

He was taken to the Seventh Precinct on the Lower East Side and given a breathalyzer test, and had a 0.07 result. John Jackson, 38, was arrested for misdemeanor DWI.

 

Wouldn’t leave

A harassment violation was filed after a domestic dispute at the public housing building at 446 W. 26th St., between Ninth and Tenth Aves., according to police.

A woman told cops that on Tues., March 12, at noon, she wanted her boyfriend to leave her apartment. The man reportedly retorted, “I have a lot of money to do whatever I want to you.” This caused the woman, 52, to fear for her safety.

The man is identified in the police report as Mario Camacho, 55.
