Residents That Beat Up A Burglar Will Not be Charged With Bias Crime.

Crown Heights -- Residents of 881 Eastern Parkway building beat up a serial burglar after he broke into an apartment, then held him for the cops.
The criminal - whose long record includes at least seven prior arrests and several convictions for burglary-related offenses — was roughed up by the residents. He was treated at Kings County Hospital for bruises and a minor head wound.

He is being charged with burglary, attempted assault, menacing, trespass, possession of burglars' tools, criminal mischief and harassment, a law-enforcement source said.

The people who beat him up have not been charged, a spokesman for the Brooklyn DA said. And cops also say that what happened between them is not being investigated as a bias incident, the criminal is black, and his attackers are Jewish.
