A city sanitation worker was arrested early Monday for assaulting a co-worker in lower Manhattan, police said.

Brett Cohen, 41, allegedly shoved a female colleague to the ground during an argument at a sanitation garage on South S St. near Clinton St. on the Lower East Side about 2 a.m.

Cohen was issued a desk appearance ticket to appear in court at a later date to face a misdemeanor assault charge.
