Kassan Parks, 39, was arrested Saturday and charged with walking up behind a 45-year-old victim at 3 a.m. May 1, lassoing her with a bent from behind, dragging her unconscious body between two cars, and raping her, the NY Post reports.

According to the NYPD, Parks pulled the victim to the ground, "causing her to lose consciousness."

"The male then dragged the victim between two cars and sexually assaulted her," before fleeing the scene.

Parks has been charged with first-degree rape, assault, strangulation, sex abuse, public lewdness and harassment.

On Thursday, the Post reported that the victim had stopped cooperating with the NYPD's Special Victims Unit. She was brought to a NYC hospital and is in stable condition.

A total of 511 rapes have been reported throughout New York City as of May 5, which is in-line with 2023 figures YTD.

Sadly, one has to wonder if he'll even be prosecuted given where the crime occurred.
