A BROOKLYN neighborho­od patrol group and the NYPD teamed up Friday to nab a masked woman and an Army vet who tried to rob two men early Friday.

The masked woman confronted Chaim Stein, 22, and a friend as they walked near Humboldt St. and Maujer St. in Williamsbu­rg about 12:25 a.m., police said. “Give me your f--ing money,” she told them.

They refused and yelled for help. The woman jumped into a car driven by Frederick Henderson, 20, a paratroope­r with the 82nd Airborne division, police said. Members of the Shomrim volunteer neighborho­od patrol followed the car and someone called 911.

Jenessa Santiago, 19, and Henderson, were arrested for attempted robbery. GOODBYE.

AOL Instant Messenger is no more.

After its 20-year run, AIM finally signed off on Friday after a long battle with competing messaging services.

It leaves behind Slack, Facebook, Twitter, texting, SMS, MMS, Gchat as its legacy.

AIM was known for its memorable catchphras­es like: BRB, LOL, ROFL, TTYL, 143, LMAO, IDK, IDC, OMG, WTF, SRY, and L8R.

“We know there are so many loyal fans who have used AIM for decades; and we loved working and building the first chat app of its kind since 1997,” the company wrote on the AOL help page.

“We’re more excited than ever to focus on building the next generation of iconic brands and lifechangi­ng products,” wrote Oath, the company that AOL merged into when acquired by Verizon.
