An 11-year-old girl was groped by an alleged pervert on a Corona street Monday morning.

The victim, police said, was walking in the vicinity of 43rd Avenue and 97th Place at around 7:30 a.m. when the alleged creep approached her and grabbed her buttocks.

He then fled the scene in an unknown direction.

Police did not know if the girl was on her own at the time of the incident.

The NYPD released a photo of the suspect wanted for questioning. Police say his private area is covered over as he was exposing himself at the time the photo was taken.

The photo shows the man wearing a gray-colored jacket with a hoody and white sneakers.

Police did not provide any other information.

Anyone with information in regard to this incident is asked to call the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, 1-888-57-PISTA (74782).
