The police are looking for a man who allegedly groped a 13-year-old girl at the Astoria Boulevard subway station on Friday.
The suspect allegedly followed the girl who had just exited a N train at around 4 p.m. and approached her from behind as she had just gone through the turnstile.
The man then grabbed the girl’s buttocks and then continued to follow her as they left the station. He ultimately fled the scene.
The suspect is described as being in his 30s, with a light complexion, large build, long black hair and a beard. He was last seen wearing a green T-shirt, black pants and black shoes.
Police released surveillance photos of the suspect that were obtained from inside the station.
Anyone with information in regard to the identity of this individual is asked to call the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, 1-888-57-PISTA (74782).
