They’re Jimmy Choos, not Jimmy chews!
A crazed shopper chomped down a store employee’s hand to maintain her grip on a pair of Jimmy Choo boots inside a East Village consignment shop and then bit a cop who tried to arrest her, records show.
Melissa Scott, 28, grabbed a pair of knee-high Jimmy Choos and two scarves and put them inside her red bag inside Cadillac’s Castle on Ninth Street around 12:45 p.m., Sunday, court papers state.
When a clerk spotted the $350 merchandise protruding from the bag and tried to Scott from leaving with the loot, the rabid shoe fanatic bit the employee, records show.
Scott, who has a lengthy rap sheet for theft and assault, bore down so hard that bystanders told cops they were unable to pry the pitbull off.
When cops responded and tried to arrest Scott, she ran until they caught her and then chomped on a cop’s hand, drawing blood, records state.
Scott was charged with possession of stolen property and assault. She also has pending cases in Brooklyn for theft and allegedly stabbing a woman during a dispute in 2009, records show.
