Elmo have hard problem.
The fourth man to accuse “Sesame Street’’ puppeteer Kevin Clash of inappropriate sexual contact says the older man couldn’t get it up when the two were getting it on in Clash’s New York City pad around 1995, according the alleged victim’s civil lawsuit filed today in Manhattan Federal Court.
At the time, Clash, then 35, blamed his penis problems on an unspecified “medical condition,” the lawsuit said.
The accuser, who is now in his 30s, said he was around 16 when he met Clash walking on a Miami beach and that the pair kept in touch over the phone.

After learning that the accuser had problems at home and wanted to run away, Clash, the squeaky voice of Elmo, promised to “be a dad” to him and lured him to the city “with promises to pay for his plane ticket ... and give him cash and a free place to stay,” the lawsuit said. The accuser was allegedly sexually abused after visiting Clash.
A previous accuser who says he was also 16 when he and Clash hooked up also had written in a memoir, “The game we played was father and son.”
Clash’s latest accuser remained unnamed in the suit. His lawyer is also representing two other accusers.
Clash’s rep did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
