Cops are searching for an elderly cane-wielding goon who bashed a helpless woman wearing traditional Jewish garb at a Brooklyn subway station in an apparent antisemitic attack.
“Stupid b–tch. Go back to your country,” the cowardly thug snapped at the woman at the Kings Highway and East 16 Street subway station shortly before 1 p.m. on Thursday, according to the NYPD.
Police said Tuesday that the sneering suspect then followed the woman on the platform — and slammed her hand with his cane when she began to shoot video of the incident.
He then left the scene and remains on the loose.
Cops said the man is between 55 and 65 years old with a medium build, and was wearing a green plaid shirt, blue jeans black sneakers and carried a black book bag — along with the cane.
The case is now being investigated by the NYPD Hate Crime Task Force.
Anyone with information on the assailant is urged to contact NYPD Crimestoppers at 1-800-577 TIPS or at crimestoppers.nypdonline.org.
