Eleven sexual assaults--including a rape--have been committed against women in Park Slope, South Park Slope, Sunset Park, and Greenwood Heights since March by two, or possibly three, different men. The attacks have all been outdoors at night and against white women, most of whom were wearing skirts or dresses. The attacks are made from behind.
Be alert. Don't block your hearing with earphones. Don't be distracted by a phone conversation. Scream loudly if you feel you're in danger, and then immediately call 911 to get help and report the crime.
