Police are searching for two women who they say are responsible for attacking a man aboard a B42 bus in Canarsie.

The assault happened on Feb. 6 just before 4:30 p.m. near East 88th Street and Flatlands Avenue.

Authorities say the women started an argument with the 74-year-old before striking him in the face with closed fists.

The man suffered pain in his head, arms and legs. EMS took him to One Brooklyn Health-Brookdale Hospital Medical Center, according to police.

Both women were last seen wearing black hoodies. Authorities say one woman was observed in a black bonnet, while the other wore black glasses.
