(New York, NY) – Another young woman has been assaulted in a New York City park — this time the victim is an adult who was sunbathing in Central Park. Cops say a black man pulled down his pants and began running at a 21-year-old woman around 2:00 PM on Monday afternoon. She screamed, got up to run, and was able to get away.
Responding NYPD officers drove through the park looking for the criminal, but couldn’t locate him. She was then taken to the hospital for treatment. This all follows the recent rape of a 13-year-old girl in Queens’ Kissena Park. In that case, vigilantes eventually held down and detained a suspect until he was arrested.
Now, cops have announced they also intend to begin using cameras in Central Park so as to boost their surveillance capabilities. Drones are also being tried out when responding to 911 calls.
