According to Jason Minter, owner of Indian Road Café, he encountered a “distraught” female jogger on the morning of Tue., Aug. 31 who said she had been attacked in a remote section of Inwood Hill Park.

The woman, who appeared to be in her 20s according to Minter, said a man with a ponytail and cargo pants chased and grabbed her on a trail near the underpass of the Henry Hudson Bridge around 7:40 a.m. but she managed to fight him off.

Minter added that 911 was called and police arrived within a few minutes and searched the park.
