Should I park it somewhere else? Will I get hit there? Is it sticking out too much? I know it's the crosswalk," the report continued.</p> <p>Noting the woman's "bloodshot watery eyes" and "strong odor of an alcoholic beverage on her breath," the cop gave her a Breathalyzer test, which came up as .082. The legal limit is .08.</p> <p>Bartender Assaulted</p> <p>A 26-year-old man was charged with assault after a bartender said he repeatedly punched and slapped him when the bartender tried to cut him off. </p> <p>After the bartender said he had had enough to drink, the man followed him around the bar hitting him. The bartender complained of pain to his face and arm, but refused medical attention from EMS workers. The incident took place at Woodwork, 583 Vanderbilt Ave. at Dean Street just before 2 a.m. on March 3. </p> <p>Health Club Wallet Theft</p> <p>A crook snatched a man’s wallet from a Flatbush Avenue gym on Feb. 27.</p> <p>The 26-year-old victim told police that he went to Crunch Fitness, between Park and Sterling places, to work out at around 6 p.m. After his workout, he left his wallet on a machine.
