Brooklyn’s drive-thru banger has been caged.
A vicious Crips gang member whose eye-popping reign of terror included locking an elderly woman in the trunk of her car and trying to carjack a young mom and her kid as they waited in a McDonald’s drive-thru lane was hammered with 14 years in jail Monday in Brooklyn federal court.
Along with fellow gangbanger Wendell Jenkins, Thomas Harris, now 31, terrorized Brooklyn and Queens between 2010 and 2011 with a string of brutal carjackings and home invasions.
Jenkins was eventually collared in 2011 but Harris managed to stay on the lam until finally getting cornered in Northern California in 2012.
In April 2010, the duo snatched a 66-year-old woman as she walked to her car in Queens and stuffed her in the trunk before driving to an ATM machine and forcing her to withdraw $2,000, prosecutors said.
In February of 2011, the pair approached a woman as she idled in a Queens McDonald’s drive-thru lane with her child in the back seat.
The victim panicked and hit the gas as they tried to enter the car and she slammed into the vehicle in front of her as Jenkins and Harris fled the scene.
Still hungry for a score just 30 minutes later, the duo approached a 61-year-old man in his own driveway and pointed a gun at him.
The man told the merciless crooks that his wife was was ill and had nothing of value – but they shoved him into his car and ordered him to drive to a nearby ATM.
Cops canvassed the area along with the drive-thru victim and spotted the pair just as the man was taking out cash at gunpoint.
Jenkins was arrested at the scene but Harris fled and was later able to make it all the way to Oakland, California where he resumed dealing guns and drugs.
He was eventually busted in 2012 with 5 pounds of pot, a sub-machine gun and other firearms in his Golden State hideout.
Harris – who was a foster child – told Block that he wanted to improve himself for the sake of his young children.
“I know I made wrong decisions,” he said. “But I don’t want to keep making the wrong decisions.”
But Block seemed unmoved by the promises of improved behavior.
“I don’t know what goes on in a head like yours,” Block said before handing down his sentence. “This is an outrageous lifestyle that you’ve chosen for yourself.”
