The NYPD arrested the man accused of raping a woman inside Queens massage parlor.
Authorities say 40-year-old Zhordrack Blodywon attacked a 55-year-old woman in Flushing on Wednesday.
Blodywon is also accused of robbing a massage parlor on Saturday and is being investigated for a sexual assault that took place at another massage parlor in Greenwich Village on August 17.
Police were able to catch Blodywon on Saturday after a massage parlor worker in Great Neck, Long Island recognized him from the sketch and surveillance video released by the NYPD.
Blodywon, of East Elmhurst, ran onto a bus when the massage parlor employee called police. Nassau County police were able to track down the bus and arrest him.
He is charged with rape, robbery and possession of stolen property.
