BAT OUT T OF HELL

Club- wielding maniac hurts 10 in one-hour city rampage

An unhinged man armed with a bat left a trail of blood and destruction from Tribeca to Chelsea over one terrifying hour Saturday night, randomly bashing cars and 10 people, including Sherif Ol e ba ( a b ove ) , who wa s left unconscious.

A crazed, club-wielding man left 10 people wounded and a trail of destruction in a Manhattan rampage that included subway assaults, street beatdowns and two carjackings, police said on Sunday.

Bryan Thompson, 43, of Atlantic City, NJ, wreaked havoc from Tribeca to Chelsea — and left tourists fearing for their lives — over the course of about an hour on Saturday, cops alleged.

“He was a one-man crime spree,” a police source said.

Victims included a food deliveryman who was beaten unconscious, a Fordham University freshman injured while trying to protect his girlfriend and a tourist from Texas whose hand was broken as he defended his wife and young daughters.

“Just 30 seconds changed my whole life in a dramatic way,” said Sherif Oleba, 57, who was making a food delivery in the city when he was attacked.

“It’s one of the worst experiences of my life. Nothing even close to this has happened to me before.”

The shocking violence began in the Canal Street subway station at around 6:35 p.m. when, Oleba said, he was looking for a bench to sit on and Thompson allegedly came toward him “with this big stick in his hand.”

“He started shouting, ‘F- -king n- - - -r’ at me and raised the stick and started hitting me,” Oleba said.

The Cairo, Egypt, native said Thompson, who is black, smacked him once in the arm and again on his right hand as he raised it to protect his head.

“I was forced to put my arm down because I couldn’t take the pain, and the third hit came directly down on my head,” Oleba said. “Everything went black.”

The attacker then moved on to Mael Quentin, 18, of Harlem, who was out on a weekend date with his Pennsylvania girlfriend.

The couple was sitting on a bench in the station when they heard “screaming” on the platform, Quentin said.

“We got up and saw a man come running up to us with a big wooden pole,” Quentin said.

The assailant was mumbling as he set upon Quentin, who shouted a warning to an MTA worker in a booth and was whacked on the back of the head and arm.

Quentin fell, requiring stitches to his face and staples to close a wound on his head, he said.

At one point, the teen said, his girlfriend was cornered by the creep at the end of the platform.

“I screamed at him, ‘ Don’t touch her! I’m right here!’ and he started running towards me,” Quentin said.

“I’m just glad that my girlfriend didn’t get hurt.”

The attack “was just completely random, completely out of place,” Quentin said. “We felt like we were in a relatively safe neighborhood. It wasn’t late.”

The NYPD said a 39-year-old woman was also hit over the head with the wooden weapon in the station.

Then Thompson fled the subway and hit another 39-year-old woman on the street with the same object, police said.

After that, he allegedly set his sights on Thakuri Namgya, 37, who had just finished a shift as an Uber driver and was parked near the Holland Tunnel as he prepared to head home to New Jersey.

As Namgya moved items from the back seat of his black SUV, Thompson allegedly jumped behind the wheel of his vehicle.

“I confronted him, saying, ‘What are you doing?’ ” Namgya recalled. “He had like a huge log and slammed me in the head. I was dazed and could barely defend myself. He slammed my arm and wrist.”

Namgya said he needed eight stitches to his head and seven near his eye.

His attacker took off in his SUV.

“I never thought this would happen in that neighborhood,” Namgya said.

Thompson allegedly ended up smashing the man’s SUV into two parked empty cars before crashing around Sixth Avenue and Laight Street, cops said.

He dumped the SUV and tried to steal two other vehicles, using either his club or tree branches to smash their windows and injuring two more women before fleeing on foot, police said.

That’s when he then came upon Texas tourist Ernesto Nava, 42, who was strolling on the street with his wife, Ibonne, 40, and their two daughters, 5 and 12.

“This guy suddenly hit my wife in the leg with this huge piece of wood,” Nava said, describing the weapon as a “like a thick 2-foot piece from a tree.”

“I jumped at him and, as I was protecting my family, he hit me real hard,” the Houston man said. “Everyone was screaming, but he didn’t say a word and then just kept going and was trying to hit other people.”

Nava suffered a broken hand and said his wife can’t walk without pain because of the attack.

The dad, who was in town to visit for a few days, said, “I love New York, but my girls are too scared now” to come back.

The rampage came to an end at around 7:30 p.m. after Thompson allegedly stole a 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee and drove it north on the West Side Highway and crashed into an NYPD patrol car at around West 24th Street.

Officers broke one of the SUV’s windows and Tased Thompson after he refused to get out, cops said.

He was transported to Bellevue Hospital for a psych evaluation before being taken to central booking Sunday on charges including robbery, fleeing an officer, reckless driving, criminal mischief and numerous counts of assault, officials said.
