When push comes to shove, there’s nothing a crook won’t do to steal your stuff or create mayhem. Here’s a list of incidents from the weekend:
400 block of O’Farrell
12:01 a.m. Monday
A 19-year-old man was robbed at gunpoint, cops said. The victim was pushed against the wall by a man in his 20s. The crook demanded the victim’s cash and when the victim hesitated a gun was pushed into his chest. The armed miscreant fled with the victim’s cellphone, wallet and cash.
800 block of Turk Street
10:45 a.m. Saturday
A 33-year-old woman was carjacked while she was pumping gas, police said. A 53-year-old man approached the woman and asked her for money. She said no and the weirdo put on a mask, hit the victim and fled in the car. Her injuries were not serious.
Sutter and Grant streets

Two women in their 20s were robbed by a pepper-spray wielding woman, cop said.

The victims were treated at St. Francis Hospital and are stable, police said.
