In the Bronx on Saturday morning, an MTA employee fell victim to an assault and robbery in an employee parking area, according to police reports.

The 42-year-old man was making his way from his vehicle to begin his shift when he was suddenly struck with an unidentified object and subsequently kicked. The incident occurred around 5:45 a.m. in the parking lot adjacent to the No. 2 and 5 subway lines at the 180th Street Station in Van Nest, authorities stated.

The victim sustained injuries to his head, face, and knee, as reported by law enforcement officials.

He was transported to St. Barnabas Hospital, where he remains in stable condition.

The assailant fled with $150, and police have yet to release a suspect description.

This attack follows a violent incident from three days prior, where a teenager was allegedly stabbed during a rush-hour altercation at a Manhattan subway station, police noted.

Kamil Hamoudi was charged with felony assault — and authorities revealed he was arrested twice before for smashing strangers with glass bottles.

The 35-year-old allegedly plunged a “sharp metal object” into a 19-year-old man’s leg on an uptown L train at the First Avenue and East 14th Station about 8:10 a.m., according to a criminal complaint.

Hamoudi, who was carrying a trash bag, fled into the subway tunnel after the attack, which left the victim bleeding from a deep puncture wound, the court doc said. The teen was hospitalized in stable condition.

Major crime in the city’s transit system was up 3% as of March 15, according to NYPD data.
