Suspect in NYU student attack pleads not guilty, as another alleged victim comes forward

The man accused of assaulting an NYU student is pleading not guilty, and police now say the attack may not have been his first. Investigators report that 45-year-old James Rizzo has 16 prior arrests and may have assaulted another woman just days earlier on Thanksgiving. The NYU attack, caught on camera, has gone viral as both victims share their experiences. Rizzo is being held without bail and is due back in court for parole violations and assault charges. FOX 5 NY’s Jessica Formoso has the latest details.
