Police have arrested a suspect who they believe molested a little girl at the Seward Park Extension housing complex early last month.
30-year-old Daniel Young was taken into custody yesterday and charged with sexual abuse and “acting in a manner injurious to a child.” He lives on Madison Street and has a police record.
The incident happened at about 7:40 p.m. on June 3 in the courtyard at 64 Essex St., a NYCHA property. Cops say Young approached an 8-year-old girl and began speaking with her before touching her inappropriately. The suspect fled the scene but was captured on videotape. There was a $2500 reward for information about the crime.
