Carroll Gardens Sex Attack?

By Lisa M. Collins

A Carroll Gardens woman says she may have actually been the first victim of the groper(s)/attempted rapist(s) preying on Brooklyn women, according to The Brooklyn Paper.

Back in March 2010, this woman, who’s identity is being kept anonymous, was attacked by a man as she was returning home on Second Place near Court at 3 a.m. She had been walking her dog. The man punched her and pushed her down and tried to rape her, but she screamed and neighbors came to her rescue.

The man’s description looks very much like a few of the six drawings of the Park Slope sex attacker–about 5′ 2″, Hispanic, wearing a baseball cap and jeans.
