A man groped a 45-year-old woman onboard a Q35 bus earlier this month and now police are asking for help identifying him.

The man was riding onboard the MTA bus on Oct. 10. When the bus neared the corner of 99th Street and 59th Avenue in Corona, he grabbed the woman’s buttocks, police said.

The woman turned around and screamed at him and he fled in an unknown direction.

The NYPD has released the above photo of the suspect.

Anyone with information in regard to the identity of the male is asked to call the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, 1-888-57-PISTA (74782).
