NYPD is asking for the public’s help to identify a suspect wanted
in connection to an assault in the Nostrand Avenue and Winthrop Street subway
station.
The
NYPD says a 21-year-old female was
standing on the southbound platform when an “unidentified female individual
began a verbal dispute with the victim.”
Police
say the unidentified female followed the victim up the stairs “and then
splashed an unknown chemical substance on the victim's face.”
The suspect fled on
foot. The victim was treated at NYC Health & Hospitals/Jacobi in critical
but stable condition with burns to the left side of the face.
The NYPD is looking for
a female, about 20-30 years of age, with dark complexion and a medium build and
black hair. They have released surveillance video and pictures of her.
