NEW YORK (WCBS 880) — Police late Tuesday night released a sketch of a man being sought in connection to an anti-Asian attack at a Manhattan train station last year.

The NYPD said a 47-year-old woman standing on the northbound 5 train platform at the Canal Street station back on Nov. 5, 2020 when the suspect came up to her and made anti-Chinese remarks before kicking her in the shoulder and left side.


The man fled on foot and the victim later sought medical treatment, according to police.

The victim reported the incident to police on June 19, about seven months after the alleged attack.

The NYPD Hate Crime Task Force is investigating.

The public can send in tips to the Crime Stoppers hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS or on Twitter @NYPDTips. ​
