Poop Attacks

Ekwan Hill threw poop at two women in the Upper East Side in the span of four hours on Monday June 27, 2016.

The first attack came at about 2:30 p.m. when the Ekwan tossed poop on the face of a 33-year-old woman walking on E. 91st St. near Madison Ave. He also threw feces at a witness.

At 6:15 p.m., surveillance video caught him sneaking up behind a woman on E. 74th St. near First Ave., grabbing her rear and pushing a bag of poop down her shorts.

Ekwan then forced the woman off the sidewalk then pulled off his gloves and scampered away from the scene.

NYPD caught him on Thursday June 6, 2016 at the Samaritan Village shelter after a security guard gave them a tip. When he was arrested he said “God did it!" Ekwan was charged with assault and forcible touching.

When a reporter asked Ekwan a question he responded by saying “Why the filth?

It's a Farrakhan thing.”

He was referring to Louis Farrakhan the former leader of the Nation of Islam.
