He first groped a woman about 4 a.m. on Dec. 4, but didn't strike again until Jan. 14, when he attacked another woman there about 4:20 p.m., police said.
He then grabbed a woman as she walked up the stairs about 9:35 p.m. on Feb. 1 and shoved a woman against a wall before groping her about 8:30 p.m. on Feb. 13, police said.
In his latest attack on Monday, he grabbed a woman walking up the station stairs about 7 p.m., police said.
The suspect was described as about 25 years old and standing 6 feet, police said. He was last seen wearing a black baseball cap, a black jacket, a dark shirt, gray-and-black sweatpants and was carrying a duffel bag with red straps, police said.
