The NYPD has released surveillance video of a man who allegedly preyed upon two young girls in a Queens apartment building two days ago.
According to the NYPD, around 7:10 p.m. on Monday, the man entered the Jackson Heights building and sexually abused a four-year-old girl and a nine-year-old girl in the laundry room before fleeing.
The suspect is described as a Hispanic male, between 35 and 45 years of age, who was wearing a blue-and-white striped zip-up hooded sweatshirt. Here are stills of the man that the NYPD compiled, including ones where he looks downright gleeful:
Anyone with information in regards to this sexual abuse is asked to call the NYPD's Crime Stoppers Hotline at 800-577-TIPS. The public can also submit their tips by logging onto the Crime Stoppers Website at WWW.NYPDCRIMESTOPPERS.COM or texting their tips to 274637(CRIMES) then enter TIP577.
