A man used a belt to lasso a woman’s neck in New York City, dragging her between two cars before sexually assaulting her. Surveillance cameras captured the incident.
Police reported that an unknown man attacked a woman in the Bronx borough of the city around 3 am on May 1. The 45-year-old woman was walking along a sidewalk when the assailant, approaching from behind, carried out the attack.
Surveillance footage shows the attacker, his face covered with a white cloth, silently following the woman. Abruptly, he used a belt to trap her neck, forcefully bringing her to the ground.
