The man in this picture is wanted for questioning in connection with two armed cellphone robberies in Fordham, cops said.

He allegedly stole an iPad and a purse from a 31-year-old woman at 8:50 p.m. May 5 near Hughes Avenue and East 188th Street.

Authorities said he also held up a 21-year-old man at about 7:30 p.m. May 2 near East 189th Street and Hoffman Avenue and took an i-Phone and cash.

The hulking suspect is believed to be in his early 20s, about 6-foot-3 and 250 pounds, police said.

Manhattan

Two crooks tag-teamed a 15-year-od boy out of his digital camera on the second floor of a Soho novelty store, law-enforcement sources said.

The teen and a pal were snapping pictures in Kiosk, on Spring Street near Mercer Street, at about 7 p.m. May 3, the sources said.

When a stranger tried to snatch the Nikon, the teen refused to give it up — until the thief yelled, “My man’s got the grip,” and signaled to his accomplice, who lifted his shirt and showed off what looked like a gun, the sources said.

Camera in hand, the duo ran downstairs and fled.

Brooklyn

Someone fired a shot at a pair of cops in Bedford-Stuyvesant just before midnight Friday, police said.

The cops, an officer and a sergeant, were responding to a report of shots fired on Marcus Garvey Boulevard and Pulaski Street when they saw a group of men running into a building, cops said.

As the two searched the area, someone fired a shot in their direction.

The bullet missed them, but housing cops later discovered a man with a laceration to his left shoulder they believe was a bullet graze wound, said police sources.

The victim, a man in his 20s, was rushed to Kings County Hospital in stable condition.

Six spent shell casings were found nearby on Lewis Avenue, cops said.

* A 22-year-old man facing charges in three East New York armed robberies was a member of a gang, and his accomplices are being sought, authorities said.

Simmons and several pals stuck up Maria’s Food Center on Hinsdale Street near Riverdale Avenue at about 8 p.m. May 3 and Tazz 99 Express on Blake Avenue at about 8 p.m. April 20, cops said.

Simmons was busted Wednesday and charged with robbery.
