The unidentified woman was first assaulted at 5am by a male who pushed her to the ground, claiming to have a gun.
Just under an hour later, the woman was attacked again by a second male, just a few hundred feet down the road.
After the attack, the woman walked just over 500ft, where she was set upon by a second man, who also pushed her to the ground and sexually assaulted her.
New York police have managed to retrieve CCTV surveillance video footage of the second suspect as he fled the scene in Clinton Hill, Brooklyn, minutes after the attack.
Police say the similarities between the two assaults are “hard to ignore.”
