A man who got his kicks exposing himself and rubbing up against female subway riders left enough of himself behind for police to catch him. Darnell Hardware, who had to submit his DNA to the state databank after being convicted of felony drug possession, has been charged with three subway assaults dating back to 2002, reports the New York Daily News. Hardware was already in custody for a similar subway sex assault when cold-case investigators caught up with him. (More sex offenders stories.)
