Police say a man wanted in connection with attacks on two women in Queens has been linked to two more attacks.
The most recent incident occurred on October 20, when the suspect followed a woman into her building near 29th Street and 31st Avenue in Astoria, Queens.
Investigators say he choked her until she was unconscious and then sexually assaulted her.
Police say the same man stalked another woman in Astoria on the same day and also robbed a woman in the lobby of her building in Greenpoint, Brooklyn.
Police say the same man is responsible for a sexual assault in Corona on October 1.
At least three of the victims were young, Asian women.
The attacks have women in the areas on edge.
"Well, like we're going to the gym right now and I wouldn't go by myself at this hour," said one resident. "I'll make sure that I'm always with my boyfriend or friends of mine or something. I won't be on the streets by myself."
"It's a very busy neighborhood, you know. Everybody's around and like I say, it's happening late at night. We all are concerned" said another.
The suspect is described as in his late 20s, about six-feet tall and weighing 170 pounds. He was seen wearing a dark, hooded sweatshirt.
