BAY SHORE, N.Y. —
A Lengthy Island man has been arrested after a Christmas morning crime spree that gave new that means to the time period doorbuster.
It occurred shortly earlier than 2 a.m., Suffolk County police mentioned, when Justin Shuffle stole a 2010 Bobcat skid loader, which is used to push snow, from a Bay Shore buying centre. He then crashed the mini-snow plow by the entrance doorways of a close-by Goal.
As soon as inside, authorities mentioned, Shuffle swiped a coat and several other present playing cards earlier than police caught him within the electronics part of the big-box retailer.
Nobody was injured, however the entrance doorways of the shop “suffered in depth damages,” police mentioned in a information launch.
Shuffle, 33, of Deer Park, pleaded not responsible Friday to third-degree housebreaking and fourth-degree larceny. It was not instantly clear whether or not he had a defence lawyer.
