Report: Man arrested for attempted rape in Seventh Street building

The Post reports today that a "drunken pervert" pushed a woman into her apartment building on East Seventh Street early Sunday morning and tried to rape her.

"Anthony Griggs, 42, allegedly grabbed her around her neck, forced her upstairs and pounced on her in a hallway, biting her during the vicious attack.

Passers-by heard her screaming, 'Please don't rape me!'"

According to the Post, Griggs was charged with attempted rape, burglary, strangulation, robbery and sexual abuse and held without bail at his arraignment last night.
