The assailant followed the victim into the building around 11 p.m., wrapped his arm around her neck, and told her to 'shut up' as she screamed for help and fought back. The suspect, described as having a dark complexion, fled the scene, and as of now, remains at large. Despite being unharmed, the victim declined medical attention. This incident has raised concerns about safety in the area, especially as crime rates have surged in New York City since the pandemic, contradicting Mayor Eric Adams' claims of improving public safety.
