    A callous thief dragged a woman and broke her arm as he yanked her bag away at a trendy Soho bar, cops said this week.

    The 54-year-old victim was sitting at Kenn’s Broome Street Bar around 9:50 p.m. Aug. 31 when a stranger tried to snatch her pocketbook off the chair next to her, authorities said.

    The woman, whose arm was broken in the violent mugging, was taken to New York Presbyterian Lower Manhattan Hospital, where she was listed in stable condition, cops said.

    A photo of the still-at-large suspect, released by the NYPD late Thursday, shows him talking on the phone as he passes through a subway turnstile.

    Anyone with information on the robbery is asked to call the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, 1-888-57-PISTA(74782).
