Three women in Manhattan have been attacked by this man in just the last two weeks, authorities say.
in a sexually motivated robbery over the weekend has been linked to two similar cases, police said late Tuesday.
Both of those attacks happened prior to Saturday's daylight ambush in Fort Tyron Park, but all three have been in the last few weeks. According to the NYPD, the first victim in the pattern was a 28-year-old woman jogging inside Fort Washington Park, near West 163rd Street and Riverside Drive, after midnight on Sept. 14.
In that case, a man approached her, said he had a gun and ordered her to lay on the ground while he groped her. He rode off on a scooter. Nothing was stolen in that case. Four days later, around the same time, cops say the same man grabbed a 22-year-old woman jogging on the Hudson River Greenway Trail near Henry Hudson Parkway and Wst 163rd Street. He didn't steal anything then, either.
