The NYPD is looking for a man who tossed a drink at a bus driver’s face while aboard a bus in Jamaica last month.

On Monday, Sept. 14, around 1:15 a.m., an unidentified man was on a southbound Q111 bus near Farmers Boulevard and Brewer Boulevard, according to the NYPD.

The assailant is described as a bald man in his 30s. He was last seen wearing a black jacket, a black shirt and a black backpack.
