US man breaks into apartment and abuses sleeping 20-year-old woman: police

Theo

A Bronx woman reported a sexual assault to police. She said she woke up around 4:30 a.m. Saturday to find an unknown man in her apartment. The man allegedly entered the apartment through a window in her Wakefield home on the corner of East 230th Street and White Plains Road. The suspect fled the scene after the assault and exited the house through the same window.

In connection with the investigation, the New York Police Department released surveillance footage of a man walking on a sidewalk. The attacker fled wearing a white tank top and dark shorts. New York Post reported.

The department also announced that the victim was taken to the hospital.

“I hope that whoever did it, whoever is responsible, is actually caught and locked up because it’s not safe for us,” said Shanon Swaby. Pix11.

According to reports, it is normally a quiet area.

A long-time resident of the neighborhood said the situation is changing, and not for the better.

“As a woman, I don’t want to hear this in this neighborhood. It’s crazy. So how did he get into her house?” resident Latifah told Pix11.

Police ask anyone with information about the suspect to call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-577-TIPS.

Earlier this year, an American woman claimed an Uber driver misled her into believing he was her driver before taking her to a Florida motel, where she “woke up naked” and couldn’t remember how she got there. An investigation is now underway to determine whether the same driver has attacked other women, according to a report in the New York Post.
