Oh, he’s white? Uh… what’s race got to do with it?!?
Hes Hispanic. Its an everyday occurrence with the #7
This is truly reprehensible. What in the world is going on with all this crime on the 7 subway line? We need more policing, especially on public transit.
People prefer to have these perverts on the trains than the NYPD. People protested about the hiring of those extra police officers, you want it you got it .
I’m sure he’s a local weirdo, put that picture up on Roosevelt Ave, Northern Blvd .
The NYPD should post that picture in and around the train stations, especially at 74 street Broadway. A lot of creepy men there.
