QUEENS — Police are hunting a suspected serial groper wanted for fondling four women in Jackson Heights.

The suspect struck four times during the spree, which began March 22 when he approached a 22-year-old woman about 8:35 p.m. and touched her inappropriately before fleeing the scene, police said.

He hit next on March 26, groping a 47-year-old woman about 6 a.m. before fleeing the scene, cops said.

Then, on April 1, the suspect fondled a 19-year-old woman about 4:20 p.m. before fleeing. He struck again the following day, groping a 41-year-old woman about 5:15 p.m., police said.

Cops did not disclose the locations where the attacks occurred. There were no reported injuries in the four incidents, police added.

The suspect is described as 17 to 25 years old, standing between 5-foot-5 and 5-foot-8.
