    No, but that's pretty disturbing for me considering it's one block away from my place. Where did you hear about this?

    I heard about it early this morning, but I haven't seen anything publicized. I'm really hoping that it's not true, since I too live around the corner from this location.

    It's true. It was on the front cover of the Daily News. They also have the video, though I chose not to watch it. Very sad, but I'm sure they'll catch the guy soon enough.

    I don't have the print edition, but I don't see anything on their website about a rape. You might be thinking of the mugging of the 85 year old woman - which is a top story on their site and has a video.

    Arches is right. That's a totally different story.

    It did happen. A neighbor who lives in the building where the rape occurred told me that the rape happened at gun point. The building residents had a meeting or something where they were given more information about the incident. I don't know anything else. It was a very brief conversation.
