Police in Manhattan and Queens are looking for, well, Catwoman. A “serial stickup artist” wearing a cat mask reportedly robbed shoe and beauty stores in the two burroughs.
There is absolutely nothing about this story that doesn’t make me giggle.

Teenager Power!
No pizzas can save you now! NONE!
Not one adolescent male hated the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles in the 80s. They were easily part of the five figure groups for boys toys. I’ll easily admit that even I dressed up as one for Halloween. Turtles were awesome.
However, playing TMNT back then was acceptable. Playing TMNT now just gets you lost in sewers. Especially if you’re 17. And living in Queens. I mean, if you reside there, then Spider-Man should be your hero, not the turtles. Everyone knows that they resided under Brooklyn.
Probably the coup-de-gras of the situation was posted by one of the police officers:
“These three idiots were playing Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and wanted to go into the sewers,” said one police source. “They were never in danger, just goofing off and being stupid.”
You know you’ve messed up bad when a police officer is belittling you in a public forum.
