Police Hunt Subway Stalker Who Threatened Bed-Stuy Woman

BEDFORD-STUYVESANT, BROOKLYN — Police are hunting for the man who stalked a woman in the subway for months then threatened to hurt her when she told him to stop.

The 27-year-old woman was waiting for a northbound C train at the Kingston-Throop Avenues station below Fulton Avenue on last Wednesday around 6:15 a.m. when her stalker crept up on her, police said.

He had been following the woman for six months and had tried to talk to her before, even when she made it clear she didn’t want to have a conversation, said police.

When she told him to stop following her last Wednesday, the man became aggressive and threatened to hurt her, said police.

Police released images of the man on Thursday and described him as a big man — standing five-foot-eleven and weighing 250 pounds — in his early forties last seen wearing a gray sweatshirt, black jeans, gray hat and tan boots.

Anyone with information about this incident is asked to contact police.
