Aug. 16, 2023 By Bill Parry

Police from the 109th Precinct in Flushing continue to look for the creep who allegedly exposed himself to a 22-year-old woman inside a Murray Hill coffee shop last month.

Police say the creep entered Coffee Story, located at 152-22 Northern Blvd. in Murray Hill, just before 4 p.m. on Saturday, July 8, and proceeded to sit down next to the victim. He then began to stare at the young woman and proceeded to display his genital area to her, according to the NYPD.

The creep fled the coffee shop westbound on Northern Boulevard on foot. The victim did not sustain any injuries as a result of the incident.

The NYPD released surveillance photos of the unidentified man on Wednesday and described him as having a light complexion and dark hair with long sideburns. He was last seen wearing a maroon tank top.

Anyone with information is asked to call the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers Hotline at 800-577-TIPS.
