Cops search for suspect who threatened man at Queens mosque

Cops are on the hunt for a bigot who threatened a man with a gun after he left a Queens mosque, police said.

The suspect followed the victim in a dark-colored SUV after he left the Kew Garden Hills mosque on Kissena Boulevard near Aguilar Avenue about 8 p.m. Friday, authorities said.

He tailed the victim, who drove for several blocks until he hit a traffic light on Union Turnpike and 199th Street, cops said.

The creep then pulled next to his car, making anti-Muslim comments while threatening to kill him with a gun, authorities said. He then drove off.

Police released a sketch today, and say the suspect is in his late fifties. He has dark hair and a mustache, and wore a dark suit jacket with an emblem patch on the left pocket, cops added.

During the attack, he drove a Toyota SUV with a NY license plate. Cops have not identified the plate yet.
