New Yorker, 23, raped at knifepoint by stranger in her apartment: cops

A woman was raped at knifepoint by a stranger in her Queens apartment early Saturday, according to a report and officials.

Police responded to an assault in progress around 4:30 a.m. in a building near 148th Street and 94th Avenue in Jamaica and found the victim, who told them she had been raped, an NYPD spokesman said. 

The woman was taken to NYC Health + Hospitals/Queens in stable condition, according to police. There were no immediate arrests.
