In the early hours of March 2, a man viciously accosted women in separate incidents on Bleecker Street. In one attack, he threw the victim to the ground, hit her head against the ground and ripped off her pants, while in the other, he jumped the victim and tried to drag her down a stairwell.

The Post says both victims identified Rosado, who was "charged with attempted rape, sexual abuse and attempted assault." One victim was happy he had been arrested but added, "I just hope this sticks."
