A 26-year-old woman was groped at an Elmhurst subway station over the weekend.
Police from the 110th Precinct in Elmhurst and Transit District 20 are looking for a man who came up on the woman as she exited the Grand Avenue-Newtown subway station near Queens Boulevard around 5 a.m. on Sunday, June 5.
The suspect grabbed her rear end before running off in an unknown direction, police said. The victim was not injured and the NYPD released a surveillance image of the creep as he went through a turnstile at the station.
He was last seen wearing a mask on his chin, a distinctive black-and-white short-sleeved shirt, black pants and white sneakers.
