The NYPD is looking for a suspected subway stalker in Brooklyn who had his picture taken by his alleged victim.

Last Wednesday morning, a 15-year-old girl on the southbound platform of the Atlantic Avenue station noticed the suspect staring at her and following her, the NYPD reported in a statement. The suspect then approached her, grabbing her arm and telling her to come with him. The victim refused, and the man fled.

More recently, at 8:15 a.m. on Tuesday Dec. 15, the same girl was on the platform when the suspect again followed her, the NYPD stated. He again attempted to persuade her to leave with him; she refused. He fled the scene, but the girl was able to get his photo.

Anyone with information about this incident should call the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers Hotline at 800-577-TIPS.
