A violent straphanger pummeled a 64-year-old woman when she confronted him about illegally smoking on a Bronx train, cops said – as they released footage of the still-at-large brute. 

The victim was on a northbound No. 2 train at 149th Street-Grand Concourse station around 1:30 a.m. July 26 when a bald, goateed stranger sat across from her and started puffing on a cigarette, police said. 

When the victim asked the smoker to put it out, he punched her multiple times all over her body, authorities said. 

She was treated at the scene for minor injuries, cops said.

Cops on Sunday released footage of the attacker strolling through the subway car, pulling down his black t-shirt and gesturing as he appeared to talk to someone. 

The suspect, described as standing about 5-foot-11, was last seen wearing blue jeans and beige sneakers.
