A pair of enraged women beat and slashed a straphanger in a Manhattan subway station — after he accidentally stepped on one of their feet, police said Thursday.

The 24-year-old Bronx man was riding a northbound A train through Inwood around noon Wednesday when he made the mistake of stepping on the woman, causing her female friend to begin arguing with him, police said.

When the subway pulled into the 207th Street station, the women tried blocking the man from leaving the train.

He managed to get off, but they followed after him. The victim made his way toward the exit, but not before the women began attacking him — with the one who had her tootsie stepped on swinging her purse at him, while the other pulled out a box cutter and slashed him, police said.

The victim was taken to NewYork-Presbyterian Allen Hospital with wounds to his lower left back and right arm.
His attackers fled.

Police provided a photograph of one of the women, who is described as approximately 25 years old, 5 feet 7 and 150 pounds. Her accomplice is described as Hispanic, approximately 40 years old, 5 feet 5 and 150 pounds.
