A "migrant" who led a gang of "asylum-seeking" thugs in a caught-on-camera beating of two NYPD officers in Times Square and then quickly made bail was just busted for serial theft.
Yohenry Brito, 24, of Venezuela was arrested late Tuesday for a pair of thefts at Manhattan Sephora locations: one in July in which he cut security wires on display cases to steal fragrances and another Aug. 6, when he ripped off $1,358 worth of merchandise from store shelves before fleeing with an accomplice, who was not apprehended.
He was previously arrested and released over least three other thefts — both before and after the Times Square police beat-down.
Brito was indicted on the new theft charges Monday and is being held on $25,000 cash bond for the felony theft in July.
He is now being held on $50,000 cash bond on the Times Square police assault because of the latest arrests, also.
