Police said they caught a man — whom sources said was under arrest for an attempted rape — Monday evening after he escaped custody in Brooklyn over the weekend.

The NYPD says Jose Bisono, 31, had slipped away Saturday as he was being transported to central booking by Department of Homeless Services police officers.

When he broke free, officials said, Bisono ran towards Smith Street in Boerum Hill with his hands still cuffed behind his back.
