An 11-year-old girl was groped by an alleged pervert on a Corona street Monday morning.

The victim, police said, was walking in the vicinity of 43rd Avenue and 97th Place at around 7:30 a.m. when the alleged creep approached her and grabbed her buttocks.

He then fled the scene in an unknown direction.
