FORDHAM — Cops are looking for a suspect who snatched a cell phone from a woman in The Bronx last month, according to the NYPD.

The brazen bandit ran up behind the 25-year-old victim on June 25 as she walked in front of 6 E. 184th St. about 11:20 a.m., police said.

That's when he grabbed the phone and fled on foot, police said.
