A Manhattan man claims he was drugged and robbed by a guest he’d invited back to his apartment earlier this month.

The 26-year-old victim allegedly met the crook at a deli on the corner of Bedford Street and Sixth Avenue in the early hours of Nov. 8 and invited him back to his place a block away on Bleecker Street, police said Thursday.

There, the victim allegedly smoked a cigarette that he believes may have been laced with something that caused him to pass out at around 4:30 a.m. police sources said.

When he woke up, he realized that his wallet containing four credit cards and keys were gone — and his “guest” had fled.

NYPD surveillance footage shows the alleged thief leaving the building wearing a red tracksuit and a black bomber jacket.

Anyone with information is asked to call the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477).
