Police say the suspect knocked on the door of the 34-year-old victim’s apartment inside a multi-unit dwelling near the corner of 52nd Street and 7th Avenue in Sunset Park around 1:00 a.m. When she opened the door police say the suspect forced his way into the apartment, where he raped the victim inside her bedroom at gunpoint. The attacker then stole $500 and restrained the victim’s arms with a sweater before running off. The otherwise uninjured victim managed to call 911 after freeing herself.
