16-year-old Groped by Man on Subway Station; New York Police in Action after Disturbing Incident
New York City: An individual is currently at large following an incident where they inappropriately touched a young girl within a subway station on the Upper West Side, as reported by the NYPD.
A 16-year-old girl was targeted by a criminal while she was standing on the 96th Street station’s northbound “1” train island platform around 8:45 p.m., according to police reports.
A man allegedly assaulted a woman before running away from the station, but not before making an obscene gesture towards a bystander who took his photo.
An image reveals that the face of the accused molester was concealed by a mask. The individual was dressed in a black sweatshirt and sweatpants, paired with a white undershirt.
His hair had an unconventional style, with some strands shaved and others braided down his neck.
No injuries were sustained by the victim and the investigation is still ongoing as reported by The Post.
The incident happened after a 13-year-old girl was molested by a man at knife-point in park.
