Twerking attack on DC man caught on camera, 1 suspect arrested

The incident happened on October 7, in the 1700 block of NY Avenue, NE, according to police.

The man police say was sexually abused by two women inside a Washington, DC gas station is now speaking out, and one of those women is in custody.

Video from a convenience store’s surveillance camera from last month showed one of the women twerking against the shocked male customer while the other repeatedly grabbed his crotch.

Police are still looking for the second woman. In the video, two women in short, tight dresses and heels make advances on the man near the store’s counter, grabbing or touching him as he tries to move away. She also appears to touch his trousers inseam.

“You don’t know who these people are”, the victim told Fox 5.

He told FOX5 that he was afraid for his safety because he believed the men outside the gas station were the suspects’ pimps. He can be seen clearly trying to avoid the assault in the video, but said he did not want to be identified because he is a teacher and has already received a few backlash on social media for filing a complaint at all. “Like I said, I thought they were either transvestites, or women, or men dressed like women”.

Police posted the video on YouTube to get the public’s help in identifying the suspects.

The penalty for someone convicted of third-degree sexual abuse is a maximum fine of $100,000 and up to 10 years imprisonment.

“I was assaulted sexually”, he told NBC Washington.
