Two men attempted to push their way into a Harlem apartment, police reported Sunday.

The men (above) knocked on a door in a building near West 115th Street and Adam Clayton Powell Jr. Boulevard at about 7:15 p.m. on April 14, according to cops.

When the door was opened, the thugs tried to push their way inside, but two men who live in the unit resisted, police said.

One of the would-be thieves fired a bullet, striking one of the residents, 59, in the left forearm, according to police.

Another man, 49, was struck by bullet fragments which caused a graze wound to the top of his head, police said.

Both victims were taken to St. Luke’s Hospital in stable condition.

The assailants fled west on West 115th Street, according to police.

One of the perpetrato­rs is described as between 5foot-7 and 5-foot-9, weighing between 150 and 160 pounds, and sporting a beard. He was wearing red sneakers, a red, blue and gray Superdry ski cap, dark sweat pants, a black jacket, a black, hooded sweat shirt and a tan backpack, police report.

The other is said to be between 6 feet and 6foot-2, and weighs between 170 and 180 pounds, according to cops. He was wearing blue jeans, a darkgreen jacket, a black hoodie, black shoes and a dark-colored backpack with a pattern, police added.

Cops are looking for a man who allegedly followed a 23-year-old woman into an elevator in Harlem and threw bodily fluids on her.

The man (above) trailed behind the woman as she got onto an elevator in a building on St. Nicholas Avenue near Amsterdam Avenue at about 11:30 p.m. Friday, according to police.

When the elevator stopped at the sixth floor and the woman started to get out, the man held the doors open and threw the fluids at her before fleeing, according to police.

The suspect is between 25 and 30 years old, about 5-foot-8 and 150 pounds, and has black hair.

He was wearing a white shirt, blue jeans and brown shoes.

A 25-year-old man who was trying to sell his 2008 BMW 325i almost got carjacked by two men as they took the car for a test drive in Gravesend, according to police sources Sunday.

The seller agreed to give the two men (pictured above) a test drive at about 2:30 p.m. May 17 at Kings Highway and West 12th Street, the sources said.

One of the thieves sat in the driver’s seat, the victim got in the passenger’s seat, and the second crook was in the rear seat.

When the car got to West 10th Street and Highlawn Avenue, the man in the rear got out, displayed a gun and ordered the victim out of the car, according to the sources.

When he refused, both of the crooks tried to pull him out, but he snatched the keys from the ignition and fled, the sources said.

The would-be carjackers took off south on 10th Street.

Both men are between 18 and 25 years old, 5-foot-8 to 5-foot-9, and thin.

One of them was wearing a yellow jacket, gray sweat pants and white sneakers, and had a dark-colored backpack.
