Cops hunt perv who tried to kiss woman's feet in Manhattan subway station
Police released photos Friday evening of a man wanted for public lewdness after trying to kiss a woman's feet without her consent and performing a 'lewd act' in front of her at a subway station in downtown Manhattan, cops said.
The 30-year-old straphanger had just exited an eastbound L train at the 14th St.-Sixth Ave. subway station in Manhattan when the unidentified man, who had also just gotten off the same train, tried to strike up a conversation with her while she was waiting for another train in the station around 1 a.m. Wednesday, according to police. When she rebuffed him, he tried to kiss her feet and 'performed a lewd act' in front of her, before hopping on a westbound L train to parts unknown.
The man, who had a light complexion, was last seen wearing a burgundy sweatsuit and tan work boots, according to police.
Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Stoppers at (800) 577-TIPS. All calls will be kept confidential.
