Police Release Sketch of Suspect in Queens Sexual Assaults

2008_07_qnsattackr.jpgThe police released a sketch and surveillance video of the man believed to be involved in a series of sexual attacks in Queens, most near bus stops. While the suspect's face is not visible in the surveillance video, police are hoping someone will recognize the man's walk and mannerisms. In two incidents, the man, who has used a knife to threaten his victims, was wearing a hoodie and black Nike Air Force One sneakers. City Councilman Peter Vallone Jr. said the suspect could be involved in other attacks, "As a father of two young girls, I want to see this guy caught and punished to the maximum extent allowable by law and then some." There is a $12,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of a suspect.

    BAM! Again! More shit to deal with! See how much of these kinds of crimes there are in the city??? Deal with these Vallone! NOT graffiti! Graffiti harms NO ONE! But these crimes DO! Just thought I`d get this point across, because Vallone is wasting all your tax dollars on graffiti removal crap, (not accomplishing anything) better spent fighting off these HARMFUL crimes! Next time elect another mayor who won`t bother so much on graffiti removal!!!!

    Hey, I've seen that guy! Actually, I'v seen that guy and 100 other guys that look just like that.

    Way to attack the wrong person in this article Politburo. NY has a bad habit of letting off people a bit too easily, so I'm with the father on this one. Hope they catch this guy. Maybe he'll be on a bike so the NYPD can really take care of him.

    well, Politburo, it's Friday, so technically Police Brutality Week isn't over yet.

    That sketch is perfect. Lets hope he won't jump ship and become a Mets fan before hes caught. Then we'll never find him.
