The police are looking for a man who followed a 30-year-old woman into the vestibule of her Astoria apartment building last week and grabbed her buttocks.
The suspect allegedly targeted the woman as she was entering her 41st Street building at around 8:10 p.m. on Friday, June 22, police said. The man touched her butt and then fled the scene. The victim was uninjured.
The police did not provide any further details as to where the incident occurred.
The police have released video of the suspect, believed to be between 35 and 40 years of age. He was last seen wearing a green shirt and blue shorts.
Anyone with information is asked to call the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, 1-888-57-PISTA (74782).

“If he has a butt for touching and lips for kissing, I’m going for that.”

I feel like the harassment and cat calling has been getting worse in Astoria which sometimes leads to touching and grabbing. I’m in the Ditmars area and even walking on the residential streets I’ve gotten dudes yelling or making gross comments as I am walking by. Its the same when I pass the commercial avenues. The degree of aggression, hounding and stalking is very apparent in Astoria compared to other places I lived.
