Cops are looking for a creep who grabbed a teenage girl’s rear end while she climbed down the stairs to a Jamaica subway station.

According to police, at 10:50 a.m. on Nov. 1, a 16-year-old girl was entering the Jamaica-179th Street station on the stairs at the Hillside Avenue and 180th Street entrance. When she reached the bottom of the stairs, an unknown man approached her from behind and grabbed her buttocks.

The suspect fled the scene up the stairs in an unknown direction. The victim, who was not injured as a result, continued to her destination and later reported the incident to police.

On Nov. 9, the NYPD released a photo and video of the suspect:
