NYPD seeks subway 'manspreader' who assaulted rider
NEW YORK (FOX5NY.COM) - Cops in New York are looking for a short-tempered commuter who punched a fellow subway rider who asked him to move his legs.
A 59-year-old man riding a Manhattan-bound M train Wednesday morning before 7 a.m. told police that a young man got on at Northern Boulevard, sat down next to him, and then made "incidental physical contact" with his legs.
But when the older man asked the neighboring rider to move his legs, that man punched him in the face, police said, breaking his glasses and cutting his nose.
Police describe the puncher, who stayed on the train, as white Hispanic, about 5 feet 9 inches tall and weighing about 150 pounds. The NYPD released a photo of the suspect.
If you recognize the man in the photo or have any relevant information, contact Crime Stoppers in one of these ways:
