Daily News | Police are searching for a man they say sexually assaulted several women at gunpoint in Kensington
A police car patrols Kensington Ave, near McPherson Square. At least three women have been sexually assaulted at gunpoint in the area by a man targeting vulnerable women, police said.Philadelphia police are searching for a man accused of luring at least three Kensington women into his car, then sexually assaulting them at gunpoint — and detectives believe there may be more victims who have not yet come forward.
The second incident occurred around the same time on April 5, when the man approached a 28-year-old woman who was leaving a convenience store at East Tioga Street and Kensington Avenue and forced her into his car, police said. He drove her about a mile away, they said, and sexually assaulted her at gunpoint.
Capt. James Kearney said Tuesday that police believe there may be additional victims who have not come forward, and that the man may be targeting sex workers or women struggling with addiction. “He’s preying on these women, who we believe he feels will not report it, and some of them, we think, are not,” he said. “We need to change that.”
