A Tennessee man was cuff ed last
week for allegedly attempting
to rape a woman in Woodhaven
earlier this year.
Marlon Serrano, a 47-year-old
from Memphis, Tenn., was booked
inside the 102nd Precinct on Friday,
March 12, and charged with attempted
rape, robbery, sexual abuse and
criminal possession of a weapon,
after he attacked and attempted to
rape a woman on a residential block
in Woodhaven in January, according
to the NYPD.
On Friday, Jan. 22, around 6:30
p.m., a 58-year-old woman was
walking along 92nd Street when Serrano
allegedly approached her from
behind, cops said. He then took out a
knife, jumped on top of the woman
and stole $5 from her, the authorities
said.
Police said that Serrano than
placed his hand over the woman’s
mouth, told her not to scream and
pulled down her pants. He then bent
down and bit her on her hip.
A person walking by noticed the
attack and scared Serrano off, according
to the NYPD. He then ran
southbound on 92nd Street.
The woman was taken to Jamaica
Hospital Medical Center, where she
was treated for the bite wound to
her hip.
