When the woman refused, he reportedly attacked her — punching her face so many times her teeth fell out. The New York Police Department said the man also left the woman with a broken eye socket.
He allegedly stole the woman’s purse and fled the scene.
Anyone with information on the man is urged to contact NYPD Crime Stoppers — who have offered a reward of up to $2,500 — at 1-800-577-TIPS.
