A male employee at a Port Washington pizzeria faces a charge of forcible touching after rubbing up against a female co-worker, Nassau County police said Tuesday.

Sixth Squad detectives arrested the man, Benedetto Anzelmo, 42, of 53-62 72nd St., in Maspeth, Queens, at about 5 p.m. Monday, according to a news release.

Police said Anzelmo rubbed against the thigh and buttocks of a 17-year-old female worker at Rosa's Pizzeria, 57 Main St., four times between Jan. 1 and March 2.

He faces four counts of forcible touching and is scheduled to be arraigned Thursday in First District Court in Hempstead.
