ASTORIA — Police are looking for a man who flashed a 13-year-old girl as she was walking to school in Queens last month.

The suspect approached the teen as she was walking on 36th Avenue near 30th Street in Astoria around 7:40 a.m. on April 7 and tried to talk to her, according to the NYPD.

The man then pulled his pants down and exposed himself to the girl, police said. After he fled, the victim went to school where she reported the incident.

The suspect is described as between 30 to 35 years old, 5-foot-10 and was wearing a black coat, black pants and a black hat.

Anyone with information is asked to call the NYPD's Crime Stoppers Hotline at 800-577-TIPS or for Spanish 1-888-57-PISTA (74782).
