The New York Police Department (NYPD) has released surveillance footage of a man who attempted to rape a 32-year-old woman in Queens early Friday morning, before a brave bystander intervened and chased him away. The incident took place in East Elmhurst around 5:45 a.m., as captured by the video footage showing the suspect wearing blue jeans and a light-colored sweater leaving the scene of the assault.

According to authorities, the victim was walking near 31-31 94th St. when the attacker approached her from behind, covered her mouth with a handkerchief, threatened to kill her, and then threw her to the ground. The perpetrator proceeded to pull down the woman’s pants and underwear in an attempt to assault her.

Fortunately, a courageous local resident witnessed the attack and immediately intervened. The witness, who preferred to remain anonymous, recounted hearing the victim pleading in Spanish about her three children before seeing the assailant on top of her. She quickly yelled at the attacker and ran after him, although she was unable to catch him due to unsuitable footwear and slippery conditions.

The assailant managed to flee the scene, leaving the victim traumatized. She was taken to a nearby hospital and listed in stable condition by the NYPD. Sources revealed that the victim was likely on her way home from work when the assault occurred.

The NYPD is urging anyone with information about the suspect to contact Crime Stoppers at 1-800-577-TIPS or through the online platform. The good Samaritan who intervened expressed relief at being able to prevent a potentially tragic outcome, emphasizing the importance of being in the right place at the right time.

In conclusion, the NYPD is actively seeking to apprehend the suspect responsible for the attempted rape in Queens, and the community is encouraged to assist in bringing him to justice. The bravery and quick thinking of the bystander serve as a reminder of the importance of looking out for one another in times of need.
