Gov. Kathy Hochul visited LaGuardia Airport Thursday afternoon to celebrate enhancements of the Healthy Terminals Act, which provides improved health care and leave benefits for workers at John F. Kennedy (JFK) International and LaGuardia airports.

Police from the 106th Precinct in South Ozone Park and Transit District 20 are looking for a groper who targeted an A train rider as she passed through a turnstile inside the Howard Beach-JFK Airport subway station.

The suspect may have drawn notice for wearing a hooded winter jacket on the afternoon of Wednesday, June 18, when the temperature was in the mid-80s. The 32-year-old woman was about to exit the station located at 159th Avenue and Coleman Square at 1:30 p.m. when the warmly dressed stranger with a rolling piece of luggage approached her at the turnstile and grabbed her rear end and private area over her clothing, police said Thursday. The suspect ran out of the station and fled on foot in an unknown direction.
