NextImg:Three women flash a gun, rob cabbies in Manhattan and the Bronx: NYPD

Police are hunting for a trio of women accused of robbing at least two taxi drivers at gunpoint in Manhattan and the Bronx.

The first incident occurred just after 1 a.m. on Nov. 20, when a 60-year-old cabbie got into an argument with the three women, who were passengers in his taxi, on Lexington Avenue near East 42nd Street, the NYPD said.

The suspects pulled a gun on the driver and snatched his cellphone — before jumping out of the car and running off into the Grand Central-42nd Street subway station, according to police.

Less than two hours later, a 59-year-old taxi driver was dropping the same threesome at the intersection of Ryer Avenue and East 180th Street in the Bronx, when the passengers again pulled a gun and demanded that the cabbie hand over his valuables to them, cops said.

The suspects grabbed his cellphone and wallet containing $210, and took off running, according to police.

These three women are wanted by the NYPD in connection with two armed robberies of taxi drivers. NYPD

Neither robbery victim was injured, cops said.

Police described one of the suspects as being 5-foot-7, with a light complexion and a slim build. She was last seen wearing a black jacket, a green top, green tights and black-and-white sneakers.

Another woman was said to be 5-foot-5, with a light complexion, heavy build, and black-and-red braids. She was last seen in a black jacket, black pants, and brown fur slippers, as depicted in a surveillance photo released by the NYPD Monday.
