A violent turnstile-jumper was tracked down by police dogs last night, after he threw a cop to the ground who was trying to arrest him at the subway station at 14th Street and Eighth Avenue, police said.

The thug left the cop with a wrist injury as he shoved her at 6:45 p.m. and took off.

A canine unit were able to track down the thug with dogs by having them pick up his scent from a piece of clothing he dropped while fleeing.

He was found about a block away near the Dream Downtown on Ninth Avenue.

The man was taken into custody but has yet to be charged. The officer was taken to Bellevue Hospital for minor injuries to her right arm.
