A maniac snatched a woman’s cell phone and pointed a knife in her face during a Queens subway robbery last week, police said.
The 33-year-old victim accidentally dropped her phone on the 179th Street F line southbound platform around 7:50 p.m. in Jamaica on June 4, according to cops.
The suspect then picked it up and fled the station with it as the woman chased after him.
When the woman caught up to him outside the station, the goon whipped out a knife and waved it in her face before bizarrely chucking her phone on the street.
The suspect ran off as the woman scooped up her phone.
Police released surveillance footage of the suspect Saturday night showing him lurking in the subway station.
Anyone with information regarding this incident is asked to call the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, 1-888-57-PISTA (74782).
