Far Rockaway rapist on the loose

NEW YORK (AP/1010 WINS) -- New York City police are beefing up their presence in a Queens neighborhood where two women were raped in as many days.

Police say they are searching for one suspect and are waiting for DNA evidence. A 25-year-old woman was followed as she got out of a subway around 3:30 a.m. Tuesday. The suspect flashed a gun and told her to obey or he'd kill her. Police say she was raped in an alley behind a church.

The second victim, a 21-year-old woman, was waiting at a bus stop around 5:20 a.m. Wednesday when she was also approached by a man with a gun. She told police she was taken to a top-floor building landing and raped by a man wearing a green hoodie and bandanna covering his face.

Additional foot patrols as well as undercover detectives are being sent to the Queens neighborhood of Far Rockaway.

In the good old days,the task force,Street crime and narcotics would go there and lock up everybody for anything.The mutts didn't like the extra enforcement and would give up the bad guy.Too bad the NYPD wanted us old guys out so they could hire a new "diverse" police dept with no experience,no balls and no clue.Good luck folks.

Rappist should all be locked up. It's an awful act of violence against women. Having someone force themselves into you. Sick! These perverts should get the maximum punishment.
