New security footage released Thursday night shows the moment a lowlife robbed a Brooklyn 6-year-old boy of his electric scooter.

The Orthodox Jewish civilian volunteer patrol group Shomrim posted a clip of the July 7 caper Thursday night.

In the video, the masked adult is seen waiting for his victim, a second-grader, to cruise down the sidewalk on 12th Avenue in Borough Park.

As the child rides toward him, the creep grabs the handlebars to bring the vehicle to a stop, snatches the e-scooter away from the boy, and rides off in the other direction, the footage shows.

β€œVideo of the despicable lowlife robbing the now 7-year-old child of his electric scooter last week,” security workers captioned the footage.

Earlier this week, NYPD officers presented the traumatized boy with new wheels for his seventh birthday.

β€œ[W]e were able to provide the young victim a brand new scooter and helmet for him to enjoy!” the NYPD tweeted.

In the aftermath of the robbery, the boy was too scared to attend school or ride a scooter again.

β€œWe are working on it,” the father told The Post last week. β€œWe are going to have therapy for him, for sure. We are not going to let him fall behind.”
