A message from TWU Local 100 President Tony Utano:
 
If you see or know this individual, alert Rail Control Center and the police. He is wanted for assaulting Conductors on back-to-back trains in the Bronx.
 
Both occurred on the southbound platform inside the Prospect Avenue “5” and “2” subway station. 

On Thursday, February 3, 2022, at approximately 1513 hours, the individual punched a Conductor in his arm as he was sticking his head out of the “5” train cab window while performing a safety check as the train left the station.
 
About seven minutes later, the individual approached the conductor’s cab of a “2” train that was stopped in the station.  The individual proceeded to reach inside the cab and punched Conductor in his face and then spit on him.
