Police are searching for a man who committed an act of public lewdness on a subway train in Rego Park Sunday.

The suspect was riding a Brooklyn–bound R train at around 9:30 p.m. when he sat down opposite a 39-year-old female and displayed his genitals, according to police.

The train was near the 63rd Drive-Rego Park subway station at the time of the incident and the woman exited the train once it stopped, police said. The suspect remained on the train and exited at an unknown station.

The alleged pervert is aged between 20 and 30 years of age. He was wearing a green hoody and a black and grey colored facemask.

Police released a photograph of the suspect that was taken by the victim during the incident.

Anyone with information in regard to this incident is asked to call the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, 1-888-57-PISTA (74782). The public can also submit their tips by logging onto the CrimeStoppers website at WWW.NYPDCRIMESTOPPERS.COM, on Twitter @NYPDTips.

Crooks and pervs have a captive audience in the subway station, train, and platform.
Meanwhile the Mayor is going to cite crime statistics declining year over year.

Three sought in armed robbery near Flushing Meadows Corona Park: NYPD

Police from the 110th Precinct in Elmhurst are looking for armed robbers who targeted a 26-year-old woman in Corona and remain at large nearly two weeks later.

Police say three strangers approached the woman as she walked near the Playground for All Children in Flushing Meadows Corona Park at Corona Avenue and Saultell Avenue at around 4:20 a.m. on Friday, July 12. One of the perpetrators allegedly pulled out a small silver revolver and threatened the victim, while the others forcibly removed two yellow gold necklaces worth $2,000, according to the police report; however, an NYPD spokesman said it is not clear if that was the value of both chains or each one individually.
