Fort Greene–Clinton Hill
Subway slash
Two thugs attacked a man on a Manhattan-bound C train on Nov. 12 — sending the straphanger to the hospital for staples and stitches.
The 28-year-old victim told cops that the train was near the Clinton-Washington station at 11:45 pm when one of the goons approached him and yelled, “I’m gonna cut this n—!”
The brute slashed his head, nose and hands with a box-cutter and the other punched him in the face.
Cops say that the derelict duo — both described as 25-years-old and about 6-foot-1 — may have been members of the Crips.
The victim was transported to Brooklyn Hospital.
Apple pry
Three thieves plucked a woman’s iPhone in the Clinton-Washington G train station on Nov. 7.
The victim told police that she was on the subway platform at 4 pm when one of the strangers held her in a bear hug and another rustled through her pockets. They yanked her mobile and fled into a getaway car.
Cops arrested 18- and 33-year-old suspects, but didn’t retrieve the Jobsian device.
Brutal stabbing
A band of marauders stabbed a man in the neck and ribs on Myrtle Avenue on Nov. 7 when he tried to retrieve a stolen bicycle.
The victim told police that he was near Washington Avenue at 6:15 pm when the thugs stabbed him multiple times on his upper body — sending him to Brooklyn Hospital for stitches.
Jumped the gun
A trio of young bandits attacked two teens on S. Oxford Street on Nov. 7 — simulating a pistol and fleeing with a cellphone.
The victims told police that they were near Hanson Place at 6:15 pm when the devious crew surrounded them. One of them asked, “What are you doing?” and another barked, “I have a gun. Give me what you got!”
They fled with a Samsung phone. Police are seeking 17- and 18-year-old suspects.

Carry-off
A thief boosted a Toyota SUV from DeKalb Avenue overnight on Nov. 9.

Dirty secret
A shoplifter in a fur-trim coat stole 240 pairs of underwear from the Victoria’s Secret at the crime-riddled Atlantic Terminal Mall on Nov. 12.
