BROOKLYN — A woman was sexually assaulted by two different men in the span of an hour in Clinton Hill last month, police said.

The 31-year-old woman was in front of 187 Gates Ave., near Irving Place, about 5 a.m. on Aug. 31, when a man shoved her to the ground and sexually assaulted her while threatening her with a gun, according to the NYPD.

A second man then attacked her an hour later less than a block away in front of 58 Irving Place, police said.

In that case the suspect also threatened to use a gun but did not display one, according to police.

The suspect in the first attack is about 5-foot-7 and was wearing blue jeans and a red T-shirt, according to the NYPD.

The second suspect, who is shown in surveillance video released by police, is 6 feet tall and weighs about 170 pounds, police said.

Anyone with information should contact Crime Stoppers at (800) 577-TIPS (8477).
