Woman Sexually Assaulted in Bay Ridge
Police are looking for a rape suspect who attacked a woman in Brooklyn yesterday morning. According to WABC 7, the victim, 29, was on her way to work when she "was surprised by a man near her apartment building along Fort Hamilton Parkway around 8:40 a.m. He struck the victim over the head with a screwdriver and raped her in an alley." A neighbor told WCBS 2, "Basically this morning when I left, the victim, she was on the first floor, and she was really hysterical, and explained that someone attacked her in the basement... A lot of people think Bay Ridge is safe, but you're not safe anywhere you go." A sketch was released of the suspect, who is described as a white man in his 30s or 40s, between 5'8" and 6', 180 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes.

Yesterday morning.

Wow, 8:40 in the morning! Sheesh.

She wasn't just sexually assaulted; she was raped. It's not the time to use a euphemism.
I live a few blocks away from the attack, and this is the first I've heard of it. Yikes.

One more time with feeling: catch him, write "child molester" on his forehead with a Sharpie, take him to Rikers. The end.

I second that yikes. I walk to work every day from the N Fort Hamilton stop to about 10 blocks to the south. And I start work at 9am...anyone know the cross street of where this happened? Awful.

that drawing doesn't look like a white man in his 30's-40's.

I think any woman with a clean record should be allowed to carry a derringer pistol in the city. After a few scumbags get their balls shot off or a piece of lead between the eyes, the rape statistics will plummet.

Rapists should have their penis cut off. An innocent women is now going to be scare for life.
