Nov. 6, 2019 By Allie Griffin

A 53-year-old woman was punched in the back of the head by a man outside a Flushing church last week.

Police said that incident took place after the suspect was asked to leave Saint Michael’s Church at 136-76 41st Ave. on Monday Oct. 28 after he caused a disturbance.

The suspect remained outside the church as the 53-year-old woman exited at around noon. He then approached her and punched her in the back of the head as she went back inside, police said.

The NYPD has released video of the man punching the woman.
