NEW YORK (1010 WINS) – A man slapped a woman who accused him of filming female passengers aboard a subway train in Brooklyn, new video shows.
The NYPD released cellphone video Tuesday showing the attack aboard a southbound R train last Friday afternoon.
Police said the train was headed to the Court Street station just after 12 p.m. when the 34-year-old victim confronted the man and accused him of “filming every woman on this car.”
“Did I film you? Did I film you?” the man responds. “I didn’t film you. I didn’t film you.”
He then warns the woman, “You’re going to get yourself in trouble, because I’m not playing.”
“That’s none of your business,” he adds.
“Yes, it is. Yes, it is,” the woman responds.
Moments later, the man slaps her in the face, video shows.
The woman suffered pain and swelling to her face and nose, as well as damaged glasses. She refused medical attention.
Police said the man fled the train at the Court Street station, where he was captured on surveillance footage. The NYPD was still searching for him Tuesday.
Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-577-TIPS.
