Here’s a word of advice: Don’t call a police officer a “pig” and spit on him, especially not in front of a police station.
A belligerent man was busted after spitting at a cop right in front of the 62nd Precinct station house in Bay Ridge, law-enforcement sources said.
Valiry Abramov, 18, was on Bath Avenue near Bay 22nd Street when he was told by a police officer to walk away from the front of the station house at around 4 p.m. on Aug. 3, according to a criminal court complaint.
Moments later, the officer felt spit on the back of his neck, the documents charge.
“I’m allergic to pork, and you’re a pig!” Abramov allegedly said.
He walked toward the officer with his hands up and then resisted arrest, the documents state. He was charged with harassment and resisting arrest, according to the complaint.

A not-so-sticky-fingered thief swiped an iPad from a sleeping straphanger’s hands — but then dropped it when he saw transit cops in Coney Island, law-enforcement sources said.
Suspect Daniel Giler was on the N train as it approached the Surf Avenue stop near Stillwell Avenue at around 2 a.m. on Aug. 1 when he grabbed the tablet from a 25-year-old man, cops said.
But as the train pulled into the station, cops on patrol saw Giler drop the iPad just as the suspect spotted the officers, sources said.
Giler had allegedly pulled off another theft hours earlier when he swiped a phone from a man sleeping on a southbound train near East 34th Street in Herald Square, police sources said. Cops discovered that phone in his pocket after the botched iPad swipe. He was identified through video surveillance.
Giler was charged with grand larceny and criminal possession of stolen property in both cases, cops said.

The attack was caught on video surveillance as the two wrestled on the floor. The man eventually retreated and left the woman on the ground.
The man, believed to be in his 20s, is about 130 pounds and stands 5-foot-9. Police said he had a clean shave with a close-cut hairstyle and was last seen wearing a white shirt and blue jeans.
