MIDTOWN — Demonstrators scrawled “F--k Trump” and “BLM” on two NYPD vehicles — and stomped on their roofs — during a protest march the day after the election, police said.

A group of people wrote the phrases on two unoccupied NYPD vehicles parked in front of 3 W. 57th St., near Fifth Avenue, between 10:30 p.m. and 11 p.m. on Nov. 9, the NYPD said.

The vehicles were left with permanent dents, police said.

The group also wrote “F--k the” on the hood of an empty police van parked in the same location, the NYPD said.

The vehicles were parked around the corner from Trump Tower, which drew thousands of anti-Trump protesters the night after the election.

Police said they didn’t search the area for the perpetrators due to the “mass demonstrations” happening at the time.
