A cowardly brute is facing assault charges after police said he slugged a 9-year-old girl at Grand Central Terminal in an unprovoked attack on Saturday.

Jean Carlos Zarzuela, 30, who was free without bail despite allegedly punching an elderly woman earlier this month, was hauled out of a Manhattan precinct in handcuffs Sunday to face a court arraignment in the latest shocking attack, according to MTA police.

Zarzuela is accused of approaching the little girl, a Bronx resident, around 11:50 a.m. inside the historic terminal and punching her without warning, cops said.

Dublin, CA

The women’s-only prison in California that was dubbed the “rape club” for the rampant sexual abuse inmates faced by staff will be closing, the Federal Bureau of Prisons announced.

Federal Correctional Institution in Dublin — where Lori Loughlin and Felicity Huffman served time — has already begun to move bags and carts of supplies out to buses in a parking lot in anticipation of the planned closure as all 605 inmates will eventually be shuttled off to other prisons in the country.  

Bureau of Prisons Director Colette Peters admitted that even though the agency had “taken unprecedented steps and provided a...

A fiend who stealthily followed a woman into a Soho apartment building and raped her was on the loose Monday, authorities and sources said.

The attacker threatened to shoot the 23-year-old victim in a terrifying ordeal after he snuck into the building near Thompson and Prince streets at around 4:10 a.m. Sunday, cops said.

Video released by the NYPD late Sunday shows the perv walking along the sidewalk, at first passing the entrance to the residence, but then doubling back when he spots someone entering — possibly the victim — before grabbing the door and walking inside.

WINTERS – Gavin Newsom was asked to comment about Harvey Weinstein's 2020 rape conviction being overturned on Thursday, and the California governor didn't mince words. "Harvey Weinstein is a stone-cold predator. He's a rapist, twice convicted. Not once, twice," Newsom said on Thursday. New York's highest court overturned the disgraced Hollywood producer's rape conviction on Thursday and ordered a new trial. The New York Court of Appeals said the judge in the Weinstein case made several improper rulings, preventing the now 72-year-old from getting a fair trial. Jennifer Siebel, Newsom's wife, testified in a different trial in Los Angeles in...
