Police are searching for a man accused of attempting to rape a 29-year-old woman inside the lobby of her Brooklyn apartment building.
The incident happened Saturday around 11:45 p.m. inside a residential apartment on 50th Street in Borough Park.
Police say the suspect followed the victim for several blocks before reaching the apartment building.
They say the suspect asked the victim if he lived inside the building and he said yes, so she let him inside.
Once inside, police say the man grabbed the woman and held a knife to her neck and proceeded to undress and sexually assault her before running away.
The woman was transported to the hospital and later released in stable condition, according to police.
The man is described as being 5'9'' to 5'10'' and wearing a dark-hooded sweatshirt and blue jeans.
Anyone with information is asked to call the NYPD's Crime Stoppers hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS.
