Homeless Woman Attacked at Coney Island
- A homeless woman was brutally attacked at New York City's Coney Island.
- The victim feared she was going to be murdered during the attack.
- The attacker's sickening taunts added to the traumatic experience.
A 46-year-old woman has recounted a harrowing experience of being allegedly raped at knifepoint under the Coney Island boardwalk. The homeless victim, who remains unnamed, described the attack as "attempted murder," stating that one assailant held a knife to her throat while the other restrained her boyfriend. The incident, which lasted over 45 minutes, left her fearing for her life as she was choked and slashed, with one of the attackers reportedly taunting her by saying, "she's enjoying it." The alleged assailants have been identified as 24-year-old Nicaraguan migrant Daniel Davon-Bonilla and 37-year-old Leovando Moreno. Davon-Bonilla has been charged with first-degree rape, while Moreno is accused of using a brick to fend off the victim's boyfriend, who attempted to intervene. The boyfriend, identified as Ramsammy, described the terrifying moment he found his partner being attacked and his own struggle to escape a knife-wielding assailant. Ramsammy recounted his desperate plea for help from bystanders, who watched the violent scene unfold without intervening. He feared that a blow to his head could incapacitate him, allowing the attackers to turn their violence toward him. The victim expressed concern that Davon-Bonilla, who reportedly entered the U.S. illegally four months prior, poses a continued threat to others. As the investigation unfolds, the community grapples with the implications of this brutal incident, raising questions about safety and the circumstances surrounding the assailants' presence in the area.
