BRONX - Cops are searching for a ‘bagman’ who swiped a straphanger’s cell phone off of him on the subway. 


The NYPD released surveillance video of a man dressed in baggy clothes holding a bag, who is wanted in connection to a subway cell phone robbery during rush hour. 



At around 5:20 pm on November 10, a 48-year-old man was riding a northbound Number 6 train. As the train approached the 149th Street station, the man in the baggy clothes snatched his cell phone out of his hands.  




The suspect then casually walked off the train and out of the station. 


The victim did not sustain any injuries.
