Teen Sexually Assaulted on S79 Bus in Bay Ridge and Politicians and The Police Are Silent
A teen was sexually assaulted on the S79 bus at 86th Street and 4th Avenue in Bay Ridge on Tuesday, April 1st around 4:00 pm.
The police waited until today, Saturday, April 5th to share this information:
The police are looking for the man in the photo above. They wrote that he stood next to the teen and forcibly touched the teen’s breast.
The man has a medium complexion and he was wearing a black jacket, gray New Balance t-shirt, gray pants, and white sneakers.
Why did the police wait four days to share this information? Who else could have been sexually assaulted and didn’t tell anyone?
It doesn’t say that the teen (or her parents) reported the assault, but they must have.
What message did the teen, who was assaulted understand about this? That an assault was not important enough for the police to speak about for four days AND for politicians to be silent about.
Why didn’t politicians tell the community on April 2nd? Justin Brannan and Andrew Gouanrdes claim they are in communication with the police? Why didn’t they tell families so people could alert their children, who use the buses in this area?
If you know who this is, call NYPD’s Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or put tips here: https://crimestoppers.nypdonline.org/, or on X @NYPDTips.
