PANTLESS SUBWAY 'FLASHER'
Camo creep goes commando-style
A creep in camouflage has been giving fellow straphangers PTSD — by riding the subway without any pants or underwear and showing off his “artillery” without warning, according to police.
The perv (right) has victimized unsuspecting women on Manhattan R trains at least three times since mid-August — lifting up his long T-shirt and offering an unwanted peep show, police sources said Friday.
The serial flasher wears long slicked-back hair, a backpack and sneakers during his genitals-exposing rides, according to police, who released his image in hopes of tracking him down.
Surveillance footage shows the sicko leaving the City Hall station at Murray Street and Broadway around 2:25 p.m. on Sept. 5— just moments after pulling the sneak attack on an unsuspecting 40-yearold woman.
The twisted exhibitionist also struck two times on Aug. 16, first targeting a 32-year-old woman who was riding a northbound R train.
The woman rushed off at the 28th Street station but the creep stayed on the train.
He returned to the same station at 4 p.m. and pulled the same ambush on a 29-year-old woman aboard a northbound train, according to police. She bolted at the City Hall station but the perv once again stayed on the train, police said.
Straphangers were appalled at the commando act.
“America is a free country but not like that! To be without clothes!” said Nina Athanasacos, a 45-year-old R-train rider from Astoria.
She added, “For me, if I saw that, I’m going to get scared. Especially if you have a kid with you.”
Paul Fraser, 37, of Bushwick, said he’s encountered just about everything on the rails — but that this is, well, nuts.
“I’ve seen a number of different things on the train but not that,” he said. “Obviously it’s unfortunate, s--t like that does happen.”
Others called it just plain scary.
“That’s horrible and really disturbing,” said Hannah Speigel, 26, of Manhattan. “I don’t know how I would react in the moment.”
Samantha Fabien, a 24year-old R-train commuter, said, “It makes you feel not safe. He clearly doesn’t have any respect for female passengers.”
