On Oct. 3 around 2 a.m., two people approached a 29-year-old man onboard a D train headed southbound near the Fort Hamilton subway station, police said.

According to cops, the two suspects grabbed the victim’s phone from his hand and put a razor blade up to his neck.

They demanded the victim hand over what was on him, and then took his Apple Watch, a debit card and a pair of headphones, according to police.

The victim was left with a small laceration to his neck, but refused medical attention.

Police released footage of both suspects in the case — with one appearing at a pizza restaurant, while the other was seen walking through a subway turnstile.

Anyone with information in the case is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-577-TIPS or on the Spanish line at 1-888-57-PISTA.
