NEW YORK, NY – Although the New York City Police Department has used its public relations arm to portray a safer subway system in recent weeks, attacks are not slowing down.

Detectives with the NYPD said, “The unknown individual approached the victim and displayed a knife demanding property after the victim complied, the individual then grabbed the victim’s breast over her clothing.”
