New York City police are searching for a lecherous pervert who groped an elderly woman’s bottom on the sidewalk, causing her to fall and break her arm.
The incident happened early Tuesday around 2:20 a.m. in the Bushwick neighborhood of Brooklyn when a man on a bicycle groped the 88-year-old woman near the corner of Wyckoff Avenue and Green Avenue.
Video footage of the attack shows the deviant assailant sneak up behind the woman as she walks on the sidewalk and grab her from behind without getting off her bike.
The woman, who appears to be carrying a cane and a shopping bag, spins to face her attacker before tripping and falling to the pavement.

The victim was transported to Wyckoff Heights Medical Center with a broken left arm and a severe left hip injury.
Police say the distraught pike ran south on Green Avenue.
Surveillance cameras show the attacker riding a bicycle and wearing a white helmet, gray T-shirt and dark pants.
It comes as New York grapples with a disturbing rise in violent crime, with residents particularly troubled by a series of seemingly random attacks on streets and subways.
On Wednesday, a 20-year-old woman was shot at point-blank range on an Upper East Side sidewalk while pushing her toddler in a stroller. In this case, police are investigating a potential domestic violence motive.

Earlier this month, 32-year-old Donnie Ubiera was accused of randomly stabbing two commuters as they rode a subway train from Flushing to Times Square on the 7 Line.
One of the victims was stabbed in the face and the other suffered neck injuries. Ubiera was released from prison the day before the attacks after he was arrested for shooting a knife at police and refusing to put it back.
In March, 26-year-old event planner Lauren Pacienza was charged with masterminding, accused of pushing an 87-year-old Broadway vocal teacher to death on a Manhattan sidewalk while on a “wine-fueled rampage.”
Across the city, major crimes in New York are up 38 percent this year compared to last year, with robberies up 39 percent, burglaries up 34 percent and misdemeanors up 19 percent.
Sex crimes are also up, with FBI-determined rapes up 14 percent so far this year compared to last year and other sex crimes up 13 percent.
However, homicides are down 13 percent from last year and shooting deaths are down 9 percent, gains that Adams and police officials attribute to efforts to keep illegal guns off the streets.
New York City Mayor Eric Adams, who is a former NYPD officer, has often been vocal about rooting out crime in the city, but has been criticized for failing to bring the problem under control.
Adams blamed this on lax gun control laws and a justice system that quickly frees criminals who reoffend.
Anyone with information about the Brooklyn hitman is urged to call the NYPD Crime Stoppers at 1-800-577-TIPS.
