New York police are looking for a male robber who they say committed a sexual assault on a man on a Brooklyn street.

The  Bed-Stuy Patch  reports that police have identified the suspect as Julius Wright, 21, also known as Stinky. The 6-foot-1 black male, who was last seen wearing dark clothing, is accused of approaching a 24-year-old man at 3:30 a.m., threatening him with a simulated firearm, and stealing his cell phone. Then, say police, the suspect asked the man about his sexual orientation and proceeded to sexually assault him while berating him with antigay epithets.

The victim was hospitalized in stable condition and later released.
