Cops searching for man who groped 12-year-old girl

Police are hunting a short man who touched a 12-year-old girl’s butt when she was on her way to school in Queens this morning, cops said.

The man touched the schoolgirl just as the 7 train pulled into the Woodside-61st Street station at about 7:40 a.m. He then boarded the train with her, cops said.

When the schoolgirl got off the train she told a school official, who called cops.

Cops are looking for a Hispanic man about 30 years old who stands about five-foot-five.

Anyone with information about the crime should call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-577-TIPS.
