Police are searching for information leading to the arrest of an African-American man accused of masturbating for over 30 minutes while leering at a female commuter on New York’s No. 2 train last weekend.
The object of the lewd behavior took a cell phone image of the alleged perpetrator with his hand stuck down his pants and told police the man was fondling himself during her entire, 30-minute trip on Sunday afternoon.
The currently unknown, African-American suspect has several distinctive tattoos on his face as seen in the photograph taken by the victim. Over his right eyebrow, inked in large letters on his forehead, are the words “Team USA.” He also has a tattoo covering his right cheek.
Police are asking anyone who might recognize the man in the photo to call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477). They can also visit www.nypdcrimestoppers.com or text274637 (CRIMES) then entering TIP577.
