Cops catch teen Houdini who slipped out of handcuffs

The teen Houdini who slipped out of her handcuffs and escaped police custody in Midtown on Monday was found hiding at her boyfriend’s home in Bedford-Stuyvesant a couple hours later, police sources said.

The 15-year-old girl had been arrested for allegedly stealing clothes from Macy’s on West 34th Street and was being held in a juvenile-detention area at the Midtown South Precinct when she wriggled out of the cuffs and crept out of the station around 10:20 p.m., cops said.

She made it to her 14-year-old boyfriend’s place, where she talked about having stolen $1,000 worth of goods from the department store, a source at the home told The Post.

“She also said she hurt her hand, but we didn’t know what to believe because she says this kind of stuff all the time,” the source said. “Then detectives showed up.”

The teen, whose name is being withheld by The Post because she is a juvenile, was cuffed again around 12:30 a.m. and charged with grand larceny and fleeing police custody, law-enforcement sources said.

She was arraigned Tuesday in family court.
