A stranger followed a 26-year-old woman before beating and raping her in a brutal Wednesday morning Bronx attack, cops said.
The victim was walking on Virginia Avenue near Wood Avenue in Parkchester around 3:30 a.m. as the creep trailed behind her, authorities said.
Then the violent predator ambushed her with multiple punches to the right side of her body, before raping her, police said.
The victim was taken to a local hospital, where she is listed in stable condition, cops said.
The brute took off after the disturbing attack, heading south on Virginia Avenue and east on Mcgraw Avenue, authorities said.
A photo released by the NYPD shows the still-at-large suspect loitering on the sidewalk.
Anyone with information on the attack is asked to call the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, 1-888-57-PISTA (74782).
