""Gonzalez identified the defendant as Amadou Kane, 22, of East New York. He was arraigned on Monday...charged with first-degree robbery as a sexually motivated felony, first-degree attempted rape.""
Brooklyn DA Eric Gonzalez announced charges against 22-year-old Amadou Kane for an attempted rape and robbery involving a jogger in Shirley Chisholm State Park. The incident occurred on September 12, 2023, when the female victim was attacked by Kane, who allegedly threatened her with a knife and attempted sexual assault. The victim was able to identify Kane after removing his mask during the struggle. The prompt action by a bystander on a motorcycle scared Kane off, leading to his apprehension through surveillance footage and evidence collected by the state troopers.
