A 66-year-old E train rider was slugged in the face by a stranger he was arguing with in Long Island City during a morning rush hour last month. The victim got into a verbal dispute with the suspect as the train was entering the Court Square-23rd Street subway station at 8:30 a.m. on Tuesday, April 22.

Police from the 109th Precinct in Flushing are looking for two men who blasted a caustic liquid in the face of a 36-year-old woman and then robbed her of hundreds of dollars in cash and personal property in Auburndale last month.

The victim was standing in front of a home at 40-45 172nd St. across from the Star Toyota Service Center when two strangers approached and pepper-sprayed her face before snatching her purse, which contained a cell phone and $600 in cash, police said. They fled the location in an orange sedan in an unknown direction and remain at large a month later.
