Police are searching for a man who allegedly beat up and hospitalized a passenger on the mezzanine of the Roosevelt Avenue-Jackson Heights E train station earlier this month.
According to the report, the suspect approached the 35-year-old male victim on the mezzanine around 4 p.m. on March 9.

If you see him do not try to stop him, call the police. He could be dangerous.
