The Hofstra University freshman who accused four Bronx men and one Long Island man of gang raping her will likely face charges for her actions.

A law enforcement source told Newsday that the 18-year-old will likely be charged within days, although the source would not say what charges she would face.

Law enforcement sources have identified the woman as Danmell Ndonye of Washington Heights.

Prosecutors say Ndonye recanted her rape accusations after being told the incident may have been recorded on a cell phone camera. As a result, prosecutors have dismissed all charges against Rondell Bedward, Jesus Ortiz and Stalin Felipe of the Bronx, and Kevin Taveras of Long Island.

Hofstra officials say the woman has been suspended from school pending a disciplinary hearing.
