What a brew-haha!

When a security guard confronted Rebecca Davidsson after she had walked out of a Bedford-Stuyvesant supermarket with an unpaid-for 12-pack of beer, she tried to douse him — with blistering-hot coffee, according to court documents.

Davidsson, 30, had just left Mr. Kiwi’s Fruit & Vegetable on Broadway near Myrtle Avenue at about 1 a.m. Jan. 13. When the guard called after her, she splashed the java in his direction and tried to run away, sources said.

She didn’t get far.

The court papers list her charges as assault, menacing, petit larceny, criminal possession of stolen property, harassment and criminal possession of a weapon — the cup of joe.

A 7-year-old Soundview girl required hospital treatment for cuts, swelling, redness and plenty of pain after her mother repeatedly struck her in the head with a belt because, she told cops, she feared that the child would grow up and eventually control her.

Michelle Johnson, 31, assaulted her daughter at about 4 p.m. Jan. 14 in their home on Saint Lawrence Avenue near Randall Avenue, court records state.

She was taken into custody after police were alerted by staff from the local hospital.
