Police are asking for the public's help in locating and identifying a man accused of public lewdness on a subway during the morning rush hour last month.
According to the NYPD, on March 20th, at 8:30 a.m., a 25-year-old woman entered a southbound 7 train at the Flushing/Main Street stop in Queens: "As the train was approaching the Junction Boulevard stop, the victim observed a male suspect standing in front of her, exposing himself. The suspect then exited the train at Woodside/61 Street Station."
The police released a photograph of the suspect, describing him as being in his 60s, approximately 6"0' tall, 180 lbs, with brown eyes, and gray hair.
Anyone with information in regards to this incident 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.
