Help Track Down a Suspect of Rape in Bushwick



NYPD released this surveillance video of a man who is suspected of raping a woman and forcibly touching another woman in two separate incidents in Bushwick. DNAinfo writes that the suspect raped a 37-year old woman on April 6, 2013 after he “placed an unknown object against her back, police said. He demanded money and rifled through her pockets, but when the victim said she didn’t have any money, he raped her.” Another incident happened on February 6, when the suspect “pushed a 39-year-old woman to the ground and grabbed her buttocks and breasts over her clothing, on Woodbine Street.”

The cops are asking the public for help in tracking down this man. According to NYPD, he is in his 20s, about 5-foot-9-inches tall, and weighs about 165 pounds. He was last seen wearing a grey hooded sweatshirt and black jeans.
