According to the New York City Police Department, an unknown man allegedly raped a woman on Saturday, September 28, after forcibly entering her Upper East Side apartment.

According to police, around 3:40 a.m., a 29-year-old woman was approached at E. 92nd Street and 1st Avenue “by an unknown person who forcibly entered her residence.” The perpetrator “then raped the victim before fleeing on foot to an unknown area.”

On Aug. 10, police charged Quincy Burks with attempted rape of a 19-year-old woman near Gracie Mansion, in the same county as the Sept. 28 incident. Both suspects were arrested after police released videos of the suspect and asked the public for help finding them.
