The New York City Police Department is offering a $10,000 reward for information about the “animal” who raped a 13-year-old girl in broad daylight at a park in Queens on Thursday.
The victim was with a 13-year-old male friend when they were reportedly approached with a “machete-style” knife and forced into a wooded area by the perpetrator.
NYPD Chief of Detectives Joseph Kenny said the perpetrator tied both of the victim’s hands with shoelaces before raping the young girl, according to a report from the New York Post.
