A man repeatedly rubbed his crotch against a woman on the subway, not realising she was a plainclothes police officer. Felipe Mondragon, 52, has now been arrested. The suspect reportedly assaulted the woman on the uptown 6 train that had just left Union Square station in New York City, at around 9am on Thursday. The NYPD officer was on the train with her partner and a sergeant, who were also not in uniform.
Mondragon was immediately arrested and hauled off the train at 23rd Street station. He was then charged with forcible touching and sexual abuse. The detective, who has not been named, was on the subway as part of the NYPD Transit Bureau’s Anti-Crime Squad. The squad patrols subway carriages while in plainclothes in order to try and prevent crime on the network.
