BROOKLYN — A man rubbed his genitals on a sleeping woman's shoulder on the Q train in Flatbush, NYPD officials said.

The man, who can be seen in surveillance footage released Monday, rubbed himself against the 55-year-old woman aboard the southbound train about 1:20 a.m. on Oct. 16, police said. It's unclear why the NYPD didn't release details earlier.

He fled the train at the Church Avenue station near East 18th Street, police said.

The suspect is about 45, 5-foot-2 and 160 pounds, police said.

He was last seen wearing a black jacket, blue jeans, a dark baseball cap and black and white sneakers, police said.

Anyone with information should contact Crime Stoppers at (800) 577-TIPS (8477).
