BEDFORD-STUYVESANT — Cops are hunting a man who attempted to rape a 21-year-old woman earlier this month, the NYPD reported.
The man walked alongside the woman about 1 a.m. on Nov. 16 before grabbing her and trying to rape her on the street, police said.

Her attacker is described as in his 20s, clean cut, about 6 feet tall, and last seen wearing a black jacket, dark pants, and a winter hat with drawstrings, according to police.
