MJP –
Two thieves woke up a homeless man sleeping in the subway then clocked him and left him covered in blood on Thursday – all for $95 in cash, cops and sources said.
The 70-year-old man was snoozing inside the No. 6 Bleecker Street station in NoHo when two brutes roused him awake and demanded money around 5 a.m., according to authorities.
When he refused to fork it over, the accused robbers allegedly punched him in the head and kicked him multiple times before snatching $95 from his pocket.
They then fled the station, authorities said.

The elderly victim — who was left with a gnarly, blood-covered face — reported the incident at the Brooklyn Bridge-City Hall subway station.
EMTs wrapped a bandage around his head before taking him to Bellevue Hospital, where he was listed in stable condition.
His attackers were still in the wind as of Thursday afternoon.
