Police are looking for a man they say sneaked up behind a 76-year-old in the Bronx and groped her aggressively before shoving her to the ground last week, officials say.
The woman was on West Mount Eden Avenue around 7 p.m. Thursday when she was attacked from behind. She screamed for help, which is when she got pushed.
The suspect ran off after the shove. The victim was taken to a hospital for treatment of cuts to her head, left eye and hand. She was later released.
Police have shared a surveillance image of the suspect walking along another street shortly after the attack. Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-577-TIPS.
