Cops are looking for the creek who sexually assaulted a woman aboard a G train in Bedford-Stuyvesant on Monday morning. 

According to police, the 51-year-old woman was riding a northbound train near the Myrtle-Willoughby Avenues station at around 7:45 a.m., when the perp approached and asked about the train route. 

After a brief interaction, the man then grabbed the victim’s genitals. 

The woman was able to fend off the menacing man, and he later rushed out of the train at the Flushing Avenue station, according to police. 

First responders arrived on the scene, but could not locate the suspect. The victim refused medical attention. 

Police described the suspect as between 60 and 65 years old with a light skin complexion. He was last seen wearing “traditional Jewish garb” — a black hat, black coat, black pants and white shirt, according to police. 

Between New Year’s Day and May 7, when the most recent NYPD data is available, cops had recorded just 18 sex crimes within the 90th Police Precinct, where the incident occurred.

Anyone with information in regard to this incident is asked to call the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, 1-888-57-PISTA (74782). The public can also submit their tips by logging onto the Crime Stoppers website, on Twitter @NYPDTips.

All calls are strictly confidential.
