Manhattan
The NYPD is hunting the gun-toting thief pictured here (top photo) who has committed a rash of muggings across the borough, police said.
Between June 10 and Thursday, the suspect has struck at least 10 times, in Midtown, TriBeCa and Chelsea, and on the Upper West Side, cops said.
He approached his victims on the street and either simulated or displayed the handle of a gun, police said.
He made off with cellphones, hundreds of dollars and several iPods.
No victims were injured in the hold-ups.

Cops are seeking the public’s help in finding the elderly woman pictured here (second photo) who went missing from her TriBeCa apartment.
Mildred Cavallo, 75, was last seen at 3 p.m. Wednesday in her Harrison Street apartment building, police said.
She was wearing a red shirt, blue jeans and black sandals at the time of her disappearance.
Cops initially feared the frail woman, who uses a walker, had fallen down an elevator shaft, but searchers disproved that theory.

The thug pictured here (third photo) stabbed a man in Harlem, police said.
The suspect plunged a knife into the leg of a 26-year-old mugging victim just after midnight Tuesday on Convent Avenue.
The perpetrator fled with the victim’s wallet and tried to use a credit card from the wallet at a bodega on Amsterdam Avenue, police added.
Brooklyn
Detectives are investigating claims that a man over the course of an hour Wednesday lured two boys — including one celebrating his 12th birthday — into a Borough Park synagogue and allegedly molested them.
The 12-year-old victim was walking home from school at 4 p.m. when the sicko suspect, dressed like a member of the Hasidic community, got him to enter Simcha Hall at 15th Avenue and 50th Street, then pushed him into a bathroom and groped him, sources said.
The other victim, 11, was similarly attacked.
Staten Island
Two men were busted in possession of fireworks, authorities said.
Joshua Gonzalez, 23, was spotted at 11:40 p.m. Wednesday dealing fireworks out of the trunk of a car parked at the West Brighton Houses on Henderson Avenue, according to court papers.
Gonzalez fled cops and led officers on a chase — running in and out of buildings as he knocked on apartment doors looking for a place to hide, court documents add.
Once nabbed, he was charged with unlawful dealing of fireworks, criminal trespass and resisting arrest, said a spokesman for DA Daniel Donovan.
On Thursday, cops arrested Gregory Puskuldjian, 18, after he was caught with fireworks at McClean and Tompkins avenues in Fort Wadsworth, authorities said.
The Bronx
Cops are looking for the burglar pictured here (bottom photo) who swiped electronic equipment from a Riverdale apartment.
The thief struck at 1:30 p.m. on June 13. There were no signs of forced entry.
