Man arrested in connection with attempted rape in Ridgewood, Queens

QUEENS, N.Y. (WABC) -- A suspect was arrested in the sex assault of a woman he followed to her Ridgewood home.

Larry Williams, 24, was arrested at his grandmother's house Tuesday after surveillance video was released by police.

The video was taken before he followed a woman to her Palmetto Street home in Queens the morning of June 25 and attacked her.

In that attack, he followed her into the building and attempted to pull her pants down, police said. She was able to fight off the suspect and barricade herself behind her apartment door.

Forensics then linked him to a May 28 attack on a female jogger inside Grover Cleveland Park in Bushwick, according to the New York City Police Department.

He will be questions Wednesday in connection with that attack.

Police also are investigating another incident in Brooklyn on Star Street.

Williams has one prior arrest, for robbery in 2013.
