There’s probably a special place in Hades for the kind of criminals who wait until an old lady, or a nanny watching a child, is in the doorway to an apartment before shoving their way in. Which is why we are glad to hear that the NYPD has busted a career criminal they think was responsible for seven home invasions in Manhattan, including two where he shoved around 80-year-old ladies, one where he tied up a nanny in front of her young charge, and two where he posed as a UPS deliveryman to trick residents into opening the door. It’s enough to make the Staten Island ninja burglar seem like a stand-up guy.
