A man is arrested for allegedly forcibly touching a woman and pointing a gun at her while on the subway.
The incident happened around 3 a.m. Saturday on a northbound 2 train.
Police say 29-year-old Sharif Mitchel boarded the train at 72nd Street and sat next to the 23-year-old victim.
He then allegedly started to grab her leg.
When she asked him to stop, police say he pulled out this gun and pointed it at her.
When they reached the 3rd Avenue-149th Street station, he told her to get off with him, but she refused.
She got out at the Intervale Avenue station along with two other women who saw what happened and called police on her behalf.
Police were able to find Mitchel based on the description and arrest him without incident.
He faces several charges, including criminal possession of a weapon and harassment.
