A dapper straphanger was caught on video clobbering a 22-year-old man at a Midtown subway stop, all because he gave him a funny look, a police source said Monday night.
The suit-and-tie clad attacker followed his victim off the train at the 42nd St./Times Square station and delivered a flurry of punches, eventually knocking him to the ground during the busy evening commute, according to footage of the Feb. 27 attack.
The suspect took offense to the young man and confronted him, the source said, apparently because the victim was staring.
The assailant swung at the victim from behind as other passengers gawked and quickly stepped away. He capped the savage beatdown with a kick. Then, he bolted.

The victim suffered bruising, facial swelling and two chipped teeth during the subterranean attack. He was treated by EMS in the station, police said.
The attacker, believed to be in his 30s and Hispanic, was last seen wearing a gray overcoat, tie, slacks and black shoes in the surveillance footage.
