Playground sex crime

- Adam Shrier

A TEENAGER was sexually assaulted at knifepoint in a Brooklyn playground, police said Friday.

The 18-year-old woman was leaving the women’s bathroom in the Martin Luther King Jr. Playground in Brownsvill­e when the blade-wielding creep confronted her and pushed her back inside around 8:20 a.m. Monday, cops said.

He forced her to perform oral sex on him and tried rape her before running off, authoritie­s said.

The victim was treated at Kings County Hospital.

Police released a surveillan­ce image of the suspect walking on Van Siclen Ave. toward the playground minutes before the assault, in hopes the public can help identify him.
