He stuck a gun in their faces, and now a pair of Bronx robbery victims want a piece of their perp’s hefty $1.25 million court settlement from the city.

Jose Guadalupe is serving seven years in the clink for holding up Luis Freytes and Setal Ramcharran in separate stickups in October 2012.

Guadalupe got his windfall earlier this year after he sued the city in Manhattan Federal Court, claiming he was severely beaten by city Corrections officers in Rikers Island in 2014. Guadalupe is now serving his time in upstate Orleans Correctional Facility.

Freytes and Ramcharran have each filed suit against Guadalupe in Bronx Supreme Court to get their share of his recent settlement.

The victims were “traumatized” by the crimes, said their lawyer, Matthew Waller.

The men were notified of the settlement under the state’s Son of Sam law, which prohibits criminals from profiting off their crimes.

The city Law Department said “while the City is not involved in the effort by victims to get a part of the settlement proceeds, we would help their efforts wherever possible.”
