Police Search for Suspect in Midtown Rape
Police in Manhattan are searching for the suspect who allegedly raped a 30-year-old woman he met at a bar last month.
Incident Details
According to law enforcement sources, the pair met on October 27 just before 4 a.m. inside a bar near the corner of East 29th Street and Second Avenue in Kips Bay.
The victim and suspect then left the bar, and at one point, a source close to the investigation said, the woman became unconscious.
At that point, the suspect raped the victim, then fleeing the scene northbound in a white Chevy Malibu with tinted windows, the source said.
Investigation
The woman went to a local hospital in stable condition. The incident was reported to the 13th Precinct.
It is unclear right now if the victim and suspect arranged to meet after the bar or if the suspect followed her home. Police could not yet confirm if the victim or someone else at the scene called 911 or if the crime was reported to police shortly after.
