BRONX - Police have made an arrest in the groping of two teenage girls riding the subways in the Bronx. 





At around 1 pm on March 28, police in Brooklyn arrested Pernell Brumfield and charged him with three counts of assault, two counts of criminal posession of a weapon and disorderly conduct. 




Investigators say Brumfield of Brooklyn groped two 15 year old girls riding the subway in separate incidents.



At around 5 pm on March 9, a 15-year-old girl was riding a northbound Number 6 train. At the Grand Concourse and East 149th Street station, cops say the man repeatedly grabbed the girl’s buttocks before he ran out of the train.
