Kevin Bacon was mugged at the subway station at Seventh Avenue and 53rs street on Thursday. The mugger grabbed Bacon's BlackBerry and ran off, with Bacon in hot pursuit.
Bacon didn't give up the BlackBerry easily. The star took off after the crook, but lost track of him as he raced through the station's crowd, the sources said.
The numbers for Bacon's wife, Kyra Sedgwick -- who plays a cunning detective on the hit TV drama "The Closer" -- is no doubt stored in the phone, possibly along with dozens of other box- office stars who have graced the big screen with Bacon.
But this isn't the first time Bacon was robbed. He and Sedgwick were swindled by Ponzi-schemer Bernie Madoff, who pleaded guilty to running a $65 billion fraud in March.
NYC Transit officials said no subway personnel were told about the crime, although sources said Bacon did call police.
The Post says that according to NYPD Transit Bureau records cellphones are the prime target of muggers in 37% of the 823 robberies committed in the subway system last year.
