Bronx Rapist Busted for Attack on Teen Girl

A 29-year-old Bronx man was nabbed by cops late last week for the alleged rape of a 15-year-old girl, authorities said.

Casmine Aska, a resident of 1545 Nelson Avenue, was collared by the Bronx Special Victims Squad on Friday, February 28, 2025, just after 8 p.m. The arrest came one day after the reported assault took place within the 45th Precinct’s boundaries, according to police.

Aska now faces a first-degree rape charge tied to the incident, which allegedly occurred on Thursday, February 27. Details about the case remain slim, but investigators say they’re working to ensure justice for the young victim.

Photos and footage of Aska, released by the NYPD’s Deputy Commissioner of Public Information, are making the rounds as the investigation continues.
