A 36-year-old woman who was allegedly choked, raped and robbed by a homeless man in the Bronx desperately begged for him to stop, offering him money to end the assault, according to court documents.
“No. No. Please stop. How much can I give you to make it stop?” the victim told Kenneth Siriboe, 21, according to court documents.
Siriboe approached the victim around 5 a.m. Sunday inside an apartment building near East Gun Hill Rd. and Putnam Pl. in Norwood. He covered her mouth and began to choke her. He then threw the victim to the ground, where he punched her multiple times in the head and body. Siriboe then sexually assaulted her, prosecutors said.
Dressed in a black jacket, black pants and white sneakers, the attacker is accused of swiping the woman’s Coach bag, containing her ID, keys and $250, before fleeing on foot heading east on Gun Hill Rd.
The woman suffered bruising, swelling and cuts to her head and body. EMS transported her to North Central Bronx hospital, where she was in stable condition.
Cops caught up with Siriboe seven hours later, arresting him after getting a tip from someone who recognized him from surveillance photos that had been released, cops and police sources told the Daily News.
Police hit him with a slew of charges, including rape, robbery, strangulation, burglary, criminal obstruction of breathing, criminal trespass, assault and sex abuse.
At Siriboe’s arraignment in Bronx Criminal Court, Judge Juan Abreu set his bail at $30,000.
Cops said Siriboe had a previous address in New Jersey. He told cops that he was homeless.
He has no prior arrests in New York City, cops said.
His next court date was scheduled for Oct. 3.
