April 28, 2022

FLUSHING, Queens—A 22-year-old woman was grabbed by an African-American man at the Main Street-Flushing subway station on Thursday, before he dragged her multiple blocks and then tried to rape her inside the lobby of an apartment building, according to the NYPD.

The victim was at the station at around 9:45 a.m. when the assailant walked up to her, grabbed her by the arm, and forced her to walk out of the station with him, reports Forest Hills Post.

The African-American assailant dragged the terrified woman along Main Street toward Kissena Blvd, where he then pushed her into the lobby of a building located at 41-25 Kissena Blvd.

Once inside, the suspect allegedly held the woman down and exposed his penis. Thankfully, the woman was able to break free at that point and run off before he physically harmed her, according to Forest Hills Post.

The suspect fled the scene.
