Man Wanted For Stalking Female MTA Station Agent In Brooklyn, Cops Say
The man visited the Parkside Avenue station so many times the woman reported him to police, officials said.

PROSPECT LEFFERTS GARDENS, BROOKLYN — A female MTA agent was left scared for her safety in Brooklyn after the same man kept visiting her at work, according to police.
The 33-year-old woman told police in April that the man had visited her multiple times at the Parkside Avenue station in Prospect Lefferts Gardens where she works as a station agent, police said.
The woman was so fearful that she took a video on her phone of the man and reported him to police. He can be seen waving and putting his hand up against the station booth glass in the video, which was taken around 2 a.m. on April 3, according to police and the video.
