Rape surges 13% in NYC, police say

The city that never sleeps is facing a disturbing trend as rape cases in New York City have risen by 13% compared to last year, according to recent data released by the NYPD. Reports of this heinous crime have surged to 1,218 incidents so far this year, up from 1,077 in the same period last year.

In the past 28 days alone, the number of reported rapes has increased by a staggering 27%, with 157 cases reported compared to 124 during the same timeframe in 2023. This alarming spike in rape cases has put a spotlight on the issue of sexual violence in the city.

One recent high-profile case that has garnered attention is that of Christian Inga, who was walked by NYPD detectives from the 112th Precinct in Queens. Inga stands accused of raping a 13-year-old girl at knifepoint in Kissena Park, further highlighting the severity of the issue.

While rape cases have seen a significant increase, other violent crimes have seen a decrease in numbers. Murder rates have dropped by 10% so far this year, from 302 to 271, and the number of shooting victims has decreased by 5%, from 870 to 830.

Despite the rise in reported rape cases, the number of rape arrests has only increased by 2% compared to last year. However, when looking back five years, there has been a notable 26% decrease in rape arrests at this point in the year.

The increase in rape cases is a cause for concern for city officials and law enforcement, who are working to address this issue and ensure the safety and well-being of all residents. It is crucial for the community to come together to combat sexual violence and support survivors in seeking justice and healing.
