Two female Hell’s Kitchen thieves jumped a woman and stole her cellphone, police said Sunday.


The thugs sneaked up behind the 29-year-old victim on West 47th Street near 11th Avenue at around 9:40 p.m. Sept. 29, threw her to the ground and snatched her Samsung Galaxy III, cops said.

The teller handed over $ 1,080 and the thief fled.


The 5-foot-10 crook is believed to be in his mid to late 20s and may be an albino, cops said.

Police are looking for a man who tried to rape a 42-year-old woman as she was taking a pre-dawn stroll in Kingsbridge.

The would-be rapist demanded that the victim follow him to an isolated area, police said.


But she saw a passer-by and screamed for help, scaring off the attacker, cops added.

He was wearing jeans, sneakers and a baseball cap, and he appeared to have a handkerchief dangling from his right rear pocket, surveillance video shows.
