I sent a copy of this to the SFPD and this was their reply:
I printed your blog and gave it to the Captain to see what we can do. I recommend that a police report be made if you see this guy doing this again. If you call the police while on the bus, they can meet the bus and identify him.

Original post: Mel has a disturbing report from the eastside:
He will sit next to you in the cramped two-person seats. At some point he will move one of his arms to the side, like he’s reaching for something in his pocket. The only thing is, the arm stays in that awkward position, usually touching a young girl’s thigh or buttock for a really long time.
I know it seems silly, but when I experienced it, I honestly couldn’t be sure he was doing what I thought he was doing. I remember elbowing the guy, and he said he was “reaching for something in his pocket.” Yeah. No one “reaches” for 2 minutes ++.
The guy is really tall, maybe over 6 feet, and just an awkward-looking fellow. I don’t know if there’s anything mentally wrong with him, but his conduct is definitely wrong.
After he tried that on me, he actually kept using the same technique on other girls. I’ve caught him on two other occasions, and have called him out on it. Other than seeming like a crazy person by glaring or trying to warn these other would-be victims, I’m not sure how I can really prevent this from happening to other women.
Hey creepy dude, stop creeping people out, cuz you don’t wanna end up another Muni humper. If anyone else experienced this or any other creep on the T-Third or any other routes, let us know. We also advise you to contact the police, or at the very least, let the driver or SFMTA know about it.

Ride Muni like a boss. Our Fast Pass Clipper card holders and Muni Diaries T-shirts are all on sale 
Not sure if this is the same guy, but sounds exactly like the guy I “encountered” on the njudah one Fri evening. Same boxing you in, rubbing against you (I think he was also perhaps touching himself). After a couple of minutes I was out of there, though he was actually reluctant to move when tried to get out and eventually followed me through to the end of the car. Very creepy and even more so when he left the njudah same stop as me, followed me to the bus stop, then followed me to a shop, hovered around and eventually returned to the original stop he got off at, only when my husband turned up, after my call.
I hope there never is a next time, but if there is, the driver is going to hear about it. I was freaked out for a while after this.

Angela (et al.)-
I had the displeasure of a NJudah pervert this AM between Cole Valley & Duboce Park. Doesn’t sound like it’s the “T-Third Toucher,” however, as he definitely wasn’t over 6 feet.
He got on at Cole Valley (my stop), immediately tried to squirm behind me into the corner, which was unnecessary as the train wasn’t super packed. I moved away, but he inched closer and closer, finally swinging around and again pressing up against my back, followed by a full-on body thrust. I pushed him off and he turned to presumably do repeat his actions on another woman, who quickly moved. Lucky me, he turned his attention back on me. I told him to F-off, at which point his SPIT on me. SO disgusting. He added a barrage of sexual comments as well. Other passengers hit the emergency call button and once the driver came back he ran off.
I filed a report with both Muni and SFPD. We’ll see if anything happens.
His description: white, mid-late 30′s, appx 5’8″-5’9″; brown hair; average build. Horrid brown teeth. Was wearing neon sunglasses. Also was humming/singing loudly and acting erratic aka druggie.
Craziest part: I had an incident with a strikingly similar person while running near Kezar Stadium last weekend. Cole Valley/Haight/Inner Sunset ppl – be aware.

Thanks for sharing, Angela. That sounds and is terrible; I’ve been in the same situation and have called my husband to meet up and walk with me.

I’ve definitely seen this creeper before. I was sitting on the 4 seater section when he sat on the other end. He ended up sitting right next to me and put “his hand in his pocket” Thankfully when that happened I was already at my stop so I made a quick exit. Thanks for the heads up about calling the Bayview Police Station though & just put the # in my phone.

Ladies, when you encounter this kind of pervert doing his thing, don’t sit there in meek silence wishing it were over. Loudly say something like “Stop touching yourself you disgusting pervert–hey look, this guy is touching himself!” These types tend to vanish as soon as you call them on their crap. What they want is to shame you into sitting there looking vulnerable and violated.
I HATE these guys–disgusting cowards.

Thanks Stephanie, it’s good to know exactly what resources are available, if it should ever happen again.
