Naked man punched girl, sexually assaulted woman in West LA, police say

LOS ANGELES - Police arrested a man this week who is accused of attacking a woman and a young girl in West Los Angeles, all while naked. 

Ishmail Bangura was booked on suspicion of felony assault with intent to commit rape and burglary.

What we know:

LAPD officers were called out to a home on Barry Avenue, near Pico Boulevard around 12:30 p.m. on Thursday. According to officers, Ishmail Bangura, naked, had broken into a 63-year-old woman's home and threatened to kill and rape her.

When she ran out, police said Bangura pushed her to the ground then climbed on top of her, repeating his threats.

"Nearby residents removed him from her," one officer with the LAPD's Media Relations Division told City News Service.
