At least four MTA employees were hurt in recent attacks as unhinged riders raged at them with wrenches, fists and feet across the Big Apple, cops and sources said.

In the first assault, a wrench-wielding maniac bashed a 71-year-old driver in the forehead on board a B61 bus at Lorraine and Hicks streets in Red Hook just after 8 a.m. May 13, authorities said. 

Investigators believe a female passenger had an issue with the driver and called in her sidekick, who boarded the bus and immediately attacked the operator, sources said. 

Then the pair — whose relationship is unknown — fled off the bus together, according to the sources.

The driver was taken to Brooklyn Methodist Hospital, where he was listed in stable condition. 

Police released surveillance footage of the suspect, who is described as having a dark complexion, standing about 5-foot-6 and believed to be in his early 40s. He was last seen wearing a black sweatshirt and tan pants.

The violence continued on Thursday, when three MTA workers were attacked in less than 12 hours, according to cops and sources.

The earliest assault occurred minutes after midnight, when a 68-year-old MTA cleaner spotted a crazed man swinging a pipe at intercom kiosks inside the Bergen Street F and G train station in Boerum Hill, police sources said. 

When the cleaner tried to step in, the brute started swinging the pipe at him but missed — before punching him in the chest, cops and sources said. 

The assailant, seen wearing all black and carrying a backpack, then fled the scene.

Video released by the NYPD shows him yelling as he aggressively points the pipe at the victim. The assailant is still on the loose.

Then, around 5:30 p.m., a masked lunatic threw a cup of hot liquid on an on-duty 38-year-old MTA bus driver at Innis Street and Nicholas Avenue in the Port Richmond section of Staten Island, sources said. 

The driver was taken to Richmond University Medical Center, where he was listed in stable condition.

The still-at-large attacker was last seen wearing a black face mask and a beige hoodie.

About six hours later, a 53-year-old MTA conductor was clearing an M train at the Delancey-Essex Street station around 11:30 p.m. when she tried to rouse a sleeping passenger, the sources said. 

The subway snoozer became angry and kicked the conductor in the stomach before taking off, according to sources. 

The on-duty employee was taken to Bellevue Hospital with minor injuries. 

The attacker, who is still on the loose, is believed to be a Hispanic man in his 30s, standing about 6 feet tall and last seen wearing a black and white hoodie, the sources said.
