The NYPD is looking for a man who allegedly groped a woman inside a Jackson Heights subway station earlier this week.
On Monday, July 13, around 1:20 p.m., a 54-year-old woman was riding down an escalator inside the 74th Street-Roosevelt Avenue subway station when a man approached her from behind and groped her, according to the NYPD.

The woman didn’t report any injuries as a result of the incident, according to the police.
No arrests have been made and the investigation is ongoing.
