A Bronx schoolgirl was sexually assaulted inside her apartment yesterday morning by a knife-wielding sicko who attacked the teen in front of her terrified younger brother.
Cops said the girl, 16, picked Jamaal Holton, 26, of The Bronx, from a police photo line-up.
Realizing that she had forgotten her MetroCard on her way to school, she turned around and rushed back home. She didn’t spot the fiend until she reached the elevator.
“I noticed him in the elevator after the two ladies left,” the teen said holding back tears. “He didn’t push a button and when I got to my door he went beyond me down the hall.”
He watched her go inside, then tapped on the teen’s door and pushed his way into the apartment, she said trembling.
The victim’s 13-year-old brother tried to help his sister during the attack and was threatened with a knife.
“He came close but he wasn’t so good,” said the frightened boy. “He didn’t hit me with it.”
The girl said that before the attacker left, he turned on music on the computer and rummaged around the apartment.
“He took my money, he took everything,” she cried.
