The man wanted in connection with a criminal sex act against a minor in South Ozone Park Wednesday is now accused of a second similar incident, NYPD said.

According to authorities, at 2:45 p.m., a man approached a 7-year-old girl sitting on the front porch of her home and grabbed her buttocks. At that point, the alleged victim’s sister screamed and the suspect fled, said police.

Then about three hours later, he approached a 7-year-old girl in a driveway, performed a criminal sex act and fled on foot.

The suspect is described as a man in his 20s with a dark complexion and black hair, standing 6-feet tall and weighing 160 pounds. He was last seen wearing a blue-hooded sweatshirt with unknown white writing on the front, dark jeans and carrying a purple backpack.
