Sexual Assault at 95th St and 4th Ave Station
The 68th Precinct Police announced that a 31-year-old woman was sexually assaulted in the train station at 95th Street and 4th Avenue around 10:00 AM this morning. Story here.
The woman went into the bathroom and a man went in after her quickly. He choked and punched her from behind. (Source) He tried to pull off her leggings. (Source)
The Post shared this: “The woman screamed for help during the attack, and a good Samaritan opened the door to the restroom and said: “What’s going on in here?” The attacker shut the door, but the good Samaritan pounded on it until the suspect stopped the attack and ran off.”
This woman is a fighter and not a victim. Between her fighting and the good samaritan’s help, she wasn’t rape. We prayed for her tonight because this is beyond awful.
On the Citizen App, it showed that the man was wearing a blue ski mask and a backpack. (See here)
Councilman Brannan shared that a good Samaritan stepped in. The news shared that the man tried to go into the bathroom to see what was going on, but the attacker closed the door and continued to assault the victim. He banged on the door until the man left the bathroom. The attacker spoke to the good samaritan and said someone was trying to rob him!
The woman was brought to NYU Langone (formerly Lutheran) Hospital. She had a black eye and bruised face.
Hugs,
