The spree started at 6:40 a.m. on Northern Boulevard and 57th Street in Woodside, where the suspect approached a 23-year-old woman, tried to talk to her, and then touched her buttocks over her clothing, according to the NYPD.

He pulled the same stunt three more times that morning, groping three other female victims, the NYPD said. He grabbed a 25-year-old woman at a Rite Aid on Steinway Street, a 16-year-old girl on 35th Avenue and a 14-year-old girl on 31st Avenue near 38th Street just before 8:30 a.m., according to police.

No injuries were reported in the incidents, according to police.

The suspect is described as being between 25 and 30 years old, standing 6 foot and weighing between 220 and 250 pounds.
