A man punched a 14-year-old boy in the face while spewing anti-Mexican statements on a Brooklyn subway train, police said Tuesday.

The NYPD released video of a suspect as the department’s Hate Crime Task Force investigated Monday morning’s attack.

Police said the boy was riding a northbound 4 train with two family members around 7:15 a.m. when his attacker sat next to him.

As the train was arriving at the Atlantic Avenue–Barclays Center station, the man made anti-Mexican statements to the family and then punched the boy in the face.

The boy suffered a small laceration to his nose. The suspect was last seen fleeing the train car, police said.

Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-577-TIPS.

The pattern that isn't being talked about on the Media. They target old Mexican Eloteros and Asians . always the most vulnerable. Someone needs an intervention.
