Police are searching for a teen accused of exposing himself and simulating a sex act in front of a woman riding the subway early Monday morning.

The 24-year-old woman was on a southbound No. 7 train between Grand Central Station and Bryant Park in Manhattan when the teen who was sitting in front of her performed the lewd act, according to police.

When the woman ignored the suspect, a second teen tapped and screamed at her to look at his friend, added investigators.

Police describe the primary suspect as 5'7" tall, 145 lbs., and wearing a navy blue T-shirt with white writing on the back, dark sweat pants and white sneakers.

The second suspect is described by police as a male, Black, in his late teens and wearing a striped shirt and beige shorts at the time of the incident.

Police released surveillance video of the suspects.
