Manhattan

A quadripleg­ic in a wheelchair was slashed in the face while waiting to catch a bus in East Harlem, authoritie­s said.

The assailant exited the subway station at 125th Street and Lexington Avenue before walking up to the 42-year-old victim and slicing her Sunday at about 3:20 a.m., police said.

The woman wheeled herself down East 125th Street and over the Willis Avenue Bridge to The Bronx before seeking help at a firehouse.

She was rushed to Lincoln Hospital, where she received nearly 50 stitches to close the wound, officials said.

A suspect (above) is in his late teens or early 20s and was wearing a black, V-neck shirt, black basketball shorts and sneakers.

The tires of four cops’ private cars were slashed in Midtown, police sources said.

The vehicles were parked at 408 W. 36th St. in a zone marked for police only Sunday afternoon when the tires were cut.

Police are looking for a man who stole electronic­s from a Kips Bay home.

The burglar entered 214 E. 25th St. by smashing a basement window at 2:46 p.m. May 29, police said.

He took two iPad Minis, a Chromebook and a Fitbit Blaze from an apartment, cops said.

The suspect (inset) is bald and was wearing a red T-shirt and gray sweatpants.

Brooklyn

These two men (above) used skimming devices to steal the banking informatio­n from people in Brooklyn and Queens, authoritie­s said Monday.

The men allegedly placed the devices on ATMs in Bushwick and Jackson Heights between Jan. 15 and Feb. 27.

The devices would collect customers’ banking data with every card swipe, and the crooks then used the informatio­n to make purchases and withdrawal­s, according to cops.

Staten Island

The death of a 3-monthold Staten Island girl has been ruled a homicide, officials said Monday.

Little Morgan Ricks was rushed to the hospital Aug. 30 after she was found unconsciou­s inside her parents’ St. George apartment. She died less than two weeks later.

The medical examiner ruled her death a homicide Friday. Investigat­ors are questionin­g the baby’s parents, police sources said.

The Bronx

Two men tried to rob a 26-year-old woman in her West Farms apartment, cops said Monday.

The two lurked outside the unit on Longfellow Avenue near East 174th Street on May 4, cops said.

When the woman got home just before 2 a.m., the men followed her inside, where one of them pulled a gun, police said.

The men fled with no loot when the victim called for help.

One of thugs is about 40 years old and 6-foot-2. He was wearing a blue, hooded sweater, blue jeans and blue and white sneakers. His accomplice was wearing a light-colored, hooded sweater and blue jeans.

Queens

Cops released surveillan­ce images (above) Monday of two guys suspected of beating a Muslim man as he left a Queens mosque.

Mohamed Rasheed Khan, 59, was attacked by three men as he rode his bicycle away from the Center for Islamic Studies in Jamaica last Wednesday at about 10:30 p.m., police said.

Khan was wearing religious garb at the time. The men punched him in his face and head, causing him to fall off the bike, authoritie­s said.

The Council on American-Islamic Relations of New York is calling on cops to look into the assault as a bias crime in part because nothing was stolen from Khan.

Two of the men were caught on video in front of 105-13 Jamaica Ave. fleeing east in the direction of Francis Lewis Boulevard, police said.

Khan remains in Jamaica Hospital with laceration­s, bruising and swelling to his face.
