A perv sexually assaulted a teen who was heading home from school in a terrifying attack in a Bronx park this week, authorities said Thursday morning.
The 13-year-old victim — who uses gender-neutral pronouns — was walking in Crotona Park just after 2:30 p.m. Monday when the creep suddenly grabbed the child, threw them to the ground and pulled off their leggings, according to police.
The fiend then sexually assaulted the teen, cops said.
He snatched the victim’s cellphone before fleeing, police said.
The victim was taken to a local hospital for a medical evaluation and was subsequently released.
The suspect is described as having a dark complexion, last seen wearing a gray hooded sweatshirt, black jacket, blue jeans, black sneakers and a black hat.
