The video captures a disturbing sequence: A woman can be seen walking along a sidewalk in the Bronx on an early May morning, when a man, his face covered, approaches from behind. He throws a looped belt around the woman's neck and yanks her to the ground.
The police said they had arrested a man Kashaan Parks, 39, also of the Bronx in connection with the assault. Mr. Parks faces several charges, including rape, assault, strangulation, sex abuse and harassment.
The woman, who was not named, went to Lincoln Hospital in the South Bronx after the attack. She did not report the assault to the authorities, Joseph Kenny, the chief of detectives for the Police Department, told reporters at a briefing on Friday.
