New York police have arrested a "person of interest" in the manhunt for a Bronx rape suspect who was filmed on video assaulting a woman.

Kashaan Parks was arrested at 10:00 a.m. on Saturday and charged with attacking the 45-year-old victim in The Bronx at around 5 a.m. on May 1, the NYPD confirmed to Fox News Digital. 

The NYPD released photos of the suspect on Friday and asked the public for assistance in finding him. 

Surveillance video recorded the assault and shows a man throwing a looped belt around the woman's neck before choking her unconscious and dragging her away on a dark city street.

In the video, the man is shown looking up and down the block before it cuts out.

"The male then dragged the victim between two cars and sexually assaulted her," the NYPD said in a statement.

The video, which circulated widely online Thursday, shows the masked man sneak up behind his victim, snag her around the throat with a looped belt and drag her to the ground.
