A dispute that started in a Greenwich Village McDonald’s ended with a man repeatedly stabbed on the staircase of a nearby subway station, authorities said yesterday.

The unidentified victim, 28, and the suspect, described as in his 40s, got into it in the fast-food joint on West 14th Street near Seventh Avenue at about 6:20 p.m. Saturday, police said.

When the argument spilled outside, the suspect stabbed the victim several times in the stomach, then fled, cops said.

The victim was in stable condition at Bellevue Hospital last night.

Cops are looking for two men suspected of burglarizing a Hamilton Heights store.

They allegedly gained access to a neighboring building and smashed through a wall leading to the Best American Variety Store on Broadway near West 147th Street on Sept. 24, police said.

Once inside, they looted the cash register, then went out the way they got in, cops said.

Both suspects were described as being between 18 and 23 years old.

A bunch of punks ganged up on a man on a SoHo subway platform and fled with his wallet and iPhone — after pouncing on him for daring to resist, authorities said.

The 36-year-old victim was waiting for an F train at the Broadway/Lafayette station on Sept. 17 when one of the thugs pictured here demanded his property.

When a struggle ensued, the rest of the wolfpack jumped the man, beating him to the ground before fleeing the station, police said.

The victim later declined medical attention, investigators said.

Cops busted a thief who went on to confess to snatching pricey phones from women riding the subway in Flatbush, authorities said.

Fernando Pottinger, 19, was arrested on Oct. 2 in his home and charged with grand larceny, cops said.

He blindsided his first victim on Sept. 19 aboard a northbound No. 5 train near Newkirk Avenue, police sources said.

The 26-year-old woman was reading something on her phone when the creep snatched it out of her hand and fled as the doors opened.

He next struck on Sept. 21, grabbing a smartphone away from a 41-year-old woman near the Newkirk Avenue stop on a No. 5 train, cops said.

Both women were able to identify the suspect, according to investigators, and Pottinger confessed.

“I do it for drugs such as cigarettes and molly [ecstasy],” he wrote, “and weed to keep me from my depression.”

The Bronx

A career criminal was gunned down early yesterday in Morris Heights, authorities said.

Samuel Skerrett, 32, was shot in the neck on University Avenue near Morton Place at 2 a.m., police said. He died at Bronx Lebanon Hospital.

Investigators are seeking a motive, but Skerrett’s rap sheet suggests he had enemies.

He had been busted 18 times, mostly on charges involving drugs, although 11 arrests were sealed, cops said.

A Norwood man found his lover — breaking into his home, authorities said.

Demetrius Harvard, 22, confessed that he busted into the apartment because he was angry with his boyfriend for saying he was going out of town, court records show.

He gained entry through the bedroom window of the building on Briggs Avenue near East 202nd Street at 3:30 a.m. on Oct. 2, according to the court documents.

But the resident soon noticed the broken window and followed the blood on the floor to the bathroom, where he found his jilted beau bleeding from an arm wound, cops said.

Two druggies were caught red-handed and red-nosed — snorting away in the back seat of a car, cops said.

Ralph Hansen, 25, and Jessica Smith, 22, and another man were in the black Audi, working out a drug deal, on Corbin Avenue near Arthur Kill Road at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, court documents say.

The second man fled as officers approached, but a sunglass case in Smith’s lap contained a rolled-up $20 bill and three straws laced with drug residue, according to the court documents.

A search of the vehicle turned up more than 100 oxycodone tablets and 20 alprazolam pills, the court papers show.
