NY crime crisis 'crosses party lines,' can give Zeldin the Democrats he needs to win: George Pataki
Former New York Republican Gov. George Pataki reflects on his unlikely election win in 1994 and argues voters care more about crime than party.
A New York City man is accused of abducting, beating and raping a woman inside a bus for hours after putting her in handcuffs and leg shackles, police say.
Alexander Isaac, 30, allegedly forced the victim into his Staten Island RV on Monday morning before abusing her. He faces several charges, including kidnapping, rape, assault, unlawful imprisonment and criminal possession of a weapon.
According to court documents obtained by FOX 5 New York, the suspect put the woman in handcuffs and leg shackles and covered her mouth while assaulting her.
The woman managed to escape nine hours later and walked to a police precinct blocks away from the location.
