Police are investigating a report of a rape in Prospect Park early Friday morning.

A woman in her 30s says she was attacked near the ballfields in the park at about 2 a.m. The woman told police she was walking with her boyfriend when they were confronted by a man who said he had a gun.

Details were sketchy, but police said the woman ran off, but later encountered the suspect, who raped her. The boyfriend, meanwhile, had also run off and may have lost contact with the woman.

The victim was being treated at New York Methodist Hospital and detectives were expected to re-interview her Friday.
