These eagle-eyed Transit officers were quickly able to apprehend a suspect after noticing that individual groping an underage subway rider. Great work!
Quote Tweet
When these Transit cops were conducting train patrol, they zeroed in on a man unnecessarily crowding a young teenage girl in a relatively empty 6-train. Our officers’ suspicions were soon confirmed, and they arrested the suspect seconds after he groped the young straphanger.
