Police are searching for a man they say groped a 25-year-old woman inside a Bronx subway station last month.

The suspect grabbed the woman’s buttocks as she was standing on the northbound B/D platform at the 170th Street station just before midnight on Feb. 24.

They both boarded a train, and the victim took a photo of the suspect with her cellphone, police said. The man then fled the train.

Police say the suspect is described as being in his 30s, about 5-foot-6 and 160 pounds. He was last seen wearing a green hoodie and light blue jeans.

Anyone with information in regards to this incident is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477). The public can also submit tips by logging onto the Crime Stoppers website or by texting their tips to 274637 (CRIMES) then entering TIP577.
