Police are hunting three goons (one pictured) who assaulted and robbed a deli worker in Great Kills.

The suspects entered the Station Express Deli on Giffords Lane at approximately 7 p.m. on Aug. 12 on the pretext of purchasing cigarettes.

As the employee reached down to grab a pack, two of the punks stormed behind the counter and punched the victim in the face while the third thug watched the door. They swiped cash from the register and fled.

The victim suffered minor injuries.

The armed and grumpy New Dorp man who in April waved a defaced .357-caliber gun at his neighbor and the man’s three young kids has pleaded guilty to attempted criminal weapons possession, authorities said yesterday.

Hasim Husic, 63, will be sentenced to three years in prison for the April 10 incident on Jacques Avenue.

During a confrontation, Husic pulled the gun from his waistband and waved it in the man’s face as the victim’s three kids, ages 7, 11, and 13, cried in fear.

“Your wife’s no good. The people in this neighborhood are no good. You’re all no good,” Husic allegedly barked at the time, according to court papers. No one was harmed.

Two conniving teen crooks carried out an iPhone robbery spree on the South Shore, authorities said.

Michael Weinstein, 17, first struck on Aug. 9 when, sitting in a car, he allegedly asked a 21-year-old woman jogger on East Scranton Avenue in Eltingville if he could borrow her phone to make an emergency call.

She handed her phone to Weinstein, who suddenly hit the gas.

The victim quickly reached in, attempting to grab back the phone, cops said.

She was dragged several feet, suffering scrapes and bruises, while Weinstein escaped, cops added.

On Friday and Saturday, Weinstein joined forces with Robert Peduto, 19, targeting teens in Great Kills, cops said.

The hoodlums scored three more iPhones, using the ruse that they were looking for a lost dog and needed to call for help, cops added.

The duo was arrested Saturday night and hit with a slew of robbery charges, said a spokesman for DA Daniel Donovan.

The man, whose name is withheld pending family notification, was pronounced dead at the scene.

No arrests have been made and it’s unclear what led to the argument.

Two thugs mugged a man of his baseball cap and watch in Bronxwood, authorities said.

Reba Cassius, 33, and Kevin Clark, 30, allegedly approached a 20-year-old man along Bronx Park East near Mace Avenue at about 12:45 a.m. Friday, and Cassius snarled, “Your life is in my hands. I’m gonna kill you and your family!”

He then grabbed the man’s watch and assaulted him, while Cassius struck him in the back with a rock and threw him to the ground, court records state.

The two also snatched the victim’s black White Sox baseball cap and sprinted off into a nearby building, cops said.

They were arrested on charges of robbery, assault and menacing.
