Aaron Akaberi, 39 -- who was overcome by the floodwaters when he ran back inside his Flatbush home around 4 p.m. Thursday to save his dog and cat -- made headlines nearly a decade ago for donning the strange garb while appearing in Brooklyn Supreme Court on drug charges in 2016.

The fugitive accused of violently robbing a 99-year-old Upper Manhattan landlord has been shipped back to the Big Apple to face charges, law enforcement sources said.
