Police are questioning a man who was allegedly seen leaving at least two rice cookers in a subway station, and sparking an evacuation in Lower Manhattan Friday morning, law enforcement sources told The Post.

The man, who is in his 20s or 30s,was seen on video taking the two cookers out of a shopping cart and placing them on an upper and lower level at the Fulton Street subway station, NYPD Deputy Commissioner John Miller said.

Cops located the unidentified man at 1:40 p.m. and are interviewing him, the source said.

Because of the timing and location of the incident — a busy Manhattan subway station during peak hour — cops are investigating whether the pressure cookers were meant to be “hoax devices.”

“Obviously, we’d like to speak to this person,” Miller told reporters at a press conference. “I would stop very short of calling him a suspect.”

“I don’t know what the deliberate act is, whether it was to breed fear and alarm the public, or whether he was discarding items he was no longer interested in,” Miller said.

“To get there we’re going to need to identify him and interview him, which I’m confident we will,” he said.

Police said the man appears to be homeless, and was wearing a blue T-shirt that appears to say “Prime Day.” He has black, curly hair and a tattoo on his right arm.

Just over an hour later, a third rice cooker was found near a garbage can in Chelsea.

The devices initially were believed to be pressure cookers, Miller said.

“We have three empty rice cookers that obviously two of them are connected. The third one, maybe,” said Miller, who added that cops are looking for video of the Chelsea incident.

The rice cooker found on a Chelsea sidewalk was the same make, year and model as the two left in the Fulton Street subway station, police said.

“It’s possible that somebody put out the items in the trash today and this guy picked them up and discarded them, or it’s possible that this was an intentional act,” Miller said. “We’ve got a few steps to go.”
