A 23-year-old woman is threatened with a knife and forcibly raped at an apartment building in the area of 94th Avenue in Jamaica, Queens, New York, United States, on July 26, 2025. On Saturday morning at approximately 6:45 AM, police receive a 911 call from the victim reporting a sexual assault. An unknown male suspect knocks on the victim's door, forces entry, and sexually assaults her. The suspect grabs the victim by the neck, drags her to a back bedroom, and sexually assaults her, engaging in intercourse both with and without a condom. During the assault, the victim screams, prompting the suspect to retrieve a knife from the kitchen and threaten her to remain silent. After the assault, the suspect flees with the knife, the victim's cell phone, and bedsheets. The suspect remains at large, and the investigation is ongoing. Members of the NYPD Crime Scene Unit remove evidence from the apartment building in Jamaica, Queens, and a heavy police presence is posted at the scene. (Photo by Kyle Mazza/NurPhoto)
