PARK SLOPE — Police have released an image of a straphanger they say exposed himself to a woman aboard a Coney Island-bound F train earlier this month, then tossed her phone onto the tracks after she tried to snap a photo of him.

The man exposed himself to the 25-year-old woman at the 7th Avenue and Ninth Street stop Nov. 2 about 12:15 a.m., police said.

When the victim tried to take a picture of him, he grabbed her phone and threw it onto the train tracks before fleeing, the NYPD said.

The woman was unharmed.

The suspect is described as in his late 20s, 6-foot-2 and 195 pounds. He was last seen wearing a black do-rag and dark clothes.

Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-577-TIPS.
