A man was robbed, shot and pistol-whipped in a dice game gone wrong in the Bronx — and the vicious beatdown was all caught on video. But blasting the man wasn’t enough for the gunman, who stands over the victim and fires off another shot before picking up the cash and stuffing it into his pockets. The assailant then slams his gun into the downed man repeatedly before fleeing.

Police say she just pulled into the DeKalb Avenue station when the suspect came up to her and asked for directions. When she told him he was on the wrong platform, police say he punched her through the window and flicked a lit cigarette at her before running off.
