A woman walking home in the Financial District was raped and robbed at knifepoint early yesterday, police said.
The 21-year-old college student was walking along Water St. at 1 a.m. when a knife-wielding man grabbed her by the arm, forced her into an alley and raped her, said Sgt. Mike Wysokowski, a police spokesman. The man also robbed her of $50.
The woman, who had spent the evening at a restaurant with friends, was taken to St. Vincent's Medical Center for evaluation.
"She's pretty shaken up," Wysokowski said. "We are working with her to get a description of the suspect."
