NYPD is investigating a claim that Giants defensive tackle Jay Bromley tried to rape a woman he met online — and then to make matters worse — hit her with his car as he sped away.
Bromley reportedly had the woman meet him at the Hyatt Herald Square Hotel in Midtown Manhattan — where according to the New York Daily News — he assaulted her.
Police sources said that Jay Bromley, a 23-year-old defensive tackle, picked the 26-year-old woman up at her home early Saturday after meeting her on Instagram.
Once in the room, the woman performed oral sex on Bromley but then didn’t want to go further, sources said.
The woman claimed that Bromley tried to rape her.
When the two parted ways she demanded the football star drive her home but he refused, the sources said.
She jumped on top of the hood of his car to stop him from leaving but he kept rolling down the street.
The Giants have released this statement:
“We are aware of the situation and will continue to monitor it. We have notified the league office per the league’s protocol. We will have no further comment as we understand this is an ongoing investigation.”
We’ll have more when further details are released.
