This booze cruise didn’t end well. The captain of a 35-foot boat that burst into flames off the Bronx shoreline over the weekend was charged with drunk driving and released — after giving cops a lame excuse for the boozy blaze that injured nearly two dozen passengers, prosecutors said. “I had one beer,” Joshua Brito, 33, allegedly told cops before being hit with drunken driving charges after the fiery Saturday night mishap, according to a complaint filed in Bronx Criminal Court.

An irate subway rider pummeled a man who bumped into him on a Brooklyn train late last month, cops said Wednesday. The 36-year-old victim was onboard a northbound J train stopped at the Kosciuszko Street station in Bushwick around 1 p.m. on May 21 when he inadvertently knocked into a stranger, police said. Rather than letting it go, the seething straphanger demanded an apology from the bumper, cops said. He then punched the victim multiple times in the face and body and took off, authorities said.

A great-grandmother from Queens who was badly beaten by an unhinged woman in a Midtown subway station last month is frightened to ride the rails after the harrowing unprovoked beating, she told The Post. Aurore Gonzalez, 73 — who was allegedly pummeled by Marie McWilliams, 36, May 1 — said she can’t shake the terrifying feeling that her attacker is still right “behind” her.
