The police are looking for a man who allegedly exposed himself and performed a lewd act in front of an 18-year-old female on a 5 train in the Bronx last week.
The man allegedly sat across from the teenager on a southbound 5 train at around 9:10 pm. on Aug. 13 before exposing himself in the vicinity of the Simpson Street station. He then began to undertake the lewd act, cops said.
