A craven straphanger punched a 5-year-old boy in the face on a Brooklyn subway, then taunted the child, police said Sunday.
The boy and his mother were riding on a Brooklyn-bound G train near the Bergen St. Station in Cobble Hill when the man came up and socked him around 4:25 p.m. Saturday, cops said.
“Are you going to cry to ya’ mommy?” the puerile brute said, according to police sources.
He dashed off the train at the Bergen St. station.
Medics took the boy to NYU Langone Health-Cobble Hill where he was treated for bruising and swelling on the left side of his face.
Police on Sunday shared photos of the suspect snapped by an eyewitness of the attack and are now asking for the public’s help tracking him down.
He is described as black, about 20, 6-foot, 160 pounds, with a medium build, short black hair and moustache. He was last seen wearing an olive colored long-sleeve shirt, black jacket, black sneakers and beige cargo pants.
Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Stoppers at (800) 577-TIPS. All calls will be kept confidential.
