Two muggers jumped a 23-year-old man on the Lower East Side early Friday — viciously stabbing him as they snatched his cellphone, police said.

The violent duo, wearing all black, came up to the victim at Essex and Delancey Streets around 2:15 a.m. and went to snatch his phone, cops said.


The man tried to fight back and the tussle ended with one of the robbers stabbing the victim in the torso, police said.

The violent pair, both believed to be in their 20s, ran off with the phone, cops said. 

The victim was taken to Bellevue Hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. 


His attackers had not been caught hours later.

Robberies in the confines of the NYPD’s 7th Precinct, which covers the area, jumped about 30% so far this year, the latest data shows.
