Oscar Ruiz, 35, was picked up by police in Englewood, N.J., after a tip was called in that he had attacked MaryJane Jarman, 33, with a broken bottle.



A homeless man who allegedly attacked a woman pushing her infant son in a stroller in upper Manhattan has been arrested in New Jersey, police sources said.


Oscar Ruiz, 35, is in custody in Englewood, where he was picked up Sunday after police got a tip.

Ruiz got more than he bargained for when he came up behind MaryJane Jarman, 33, on Sept. 27 in Fort Tryon Park, cops said.


He was carrying a broken bottle and got her in a bear hug but she fought back, drawing blood from his head by beating him with a bike pump, sources said. He dropped the bottle at the scene and police lifted a fingerprint from it and identified him as the attacker, they said.

The incident was investigated as an attempted sexual assault. Charges were pending Monday.
