A 26-year-old woman told cops she was raped by a cab driver after leaving a club in the Meatpacking District in Manhattan, police sources said Wednesday.
The woman said she went to the Hotel Gansevoort at about 10 p.m. Saturday with her friend and that the two were drinking alcohol.
At about 1 a.m., her friend went to the bathroom and couldn’t find her when she returned. The friend looked inside the club for her for about 30 minutes and tried texting her, to no avail.
The victim told cops the next thing she remembered was waking up in the back seat of a taxi in Astoria, Queens, with the driver on top of her having sex with her, the sources said.
“I think something bad happened to me on the cab ride home,” she texted her friend about 3 a.m., according to the sources. “I think I was raped.”
The friend called an Uber cab, picked her up and took her to Woodhull Hospital.
The woman provided cops with the dress and Spanx she was wearing at the time. Police are investigating.
