Hello All, I am distressed to report that a rape occurred tonight on our block. A couple was walking on the east side of 48th St., when approached by 2 teens who took them into a nearby backyard at gunpoint. At that time, the woman was raped, and they were then robbed. The teens are described as African American, ages 19 and 15, one about 160 lbs, and the other about 5'2" and medium build. Not much more detail than that at this point, except that one of them was wearing a plaid shirt.
Please be vigilant - obviously it didn't matter that this woman was not alone. Patty Bulack
