NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) � A serial spitter was being blamed Tuesday night for more than a dozen incidents in Prospect Lefferts Gardens, Brooklyn � including at least one involving a pre-schooler. As CBS2�s Tracee Carrasco reported, one Brooklyn woman who did not want to be identified said she and her husband were the victims of one bizarre, unprovoked and disgusting attack. �People are generally respectful, so this is the first time that I really felt targeted,� the woman said. The man and woman were walking through their Prospect Lefferts Gardens neighborhood at the time. �As we were crossing the street on Flatbush Avenue, we heard somebody � a man clearing his throat to the left,� the woman said. �I looked over and I saw this man. His face looked really angry � and he was spitting.� She said he was spitting right in their faces, and the couple was not the man�s only target. According to a community Facebook page, there have been more than a dozen accounts of spitting attacks in the area in the last two months � including two in which children were targeted. Leslie Ward saw the man spit on a 3-year-old boy as the boy sat on the back of his mother�s bike. �She was like: �Did you see that guy? He just spat on my kid! He spat on my kid!� She was like: �Oh my God, you�re so disgusting!� and she was in tears,� Ward said. Ward said it seemed there was no mistaking what happened. �You think maybe in your mind, �Oh, maybe he meant to spit on the sidewalk and did it accidentally, but felt bad and didn�t apologize,� but the way she reacted, it was as if he had just spat right on her kid,� she said. Seth Kaplan, who helps run the private Facebook page, created a map showing where some of the incidents happened. But because spitting on someone is usually only a violation or a misdemeanor, it has been hard for police to do much. �It�s something that really affects people emotionally. They�ve been spit on,� Kaplan said, �and the problem is from a procedural issue, it�s not that high of a big deal.� The spitter is described as a tall, slender black man in his 20s or 30s, usually wearing a grey hooded sweat shirt. The 71st Precinct is encouraging people to report these disturbing attacks to them.
