A man in Nashville is accused of raping an unconscious homeless woman multiple times and potentially leaving her on the street to die of her injuries, according to police who are awaiting an autopsy.
According to a statement from Nashville’s Metro Police Department, Mohamed Mohamed approached the victim on the steps of a church where he noticed her passing in and out of consciousness:
Surveillance video shows the victim by herself walking unsteadily toward the front steps of the church. She was unable to keep her balance and sat down on a step, appearing to be under the influence of some type of substance. Mohamed approached and sat down beside her. Mohamed made physical contact with the victim as she went in and out of consciousness as she tried to push him away. He ultimately lifted her off the steps, put her on the ground, and repeatedly sexually assaulted her.
Mohamed refused to be interviewed after being taken to police headquarters. A judicial commissioner set his bond at $300,000. The investigation is continuing as detectives await information from the Medical Examiner’s Office on the victim’s cause of death. She carried no identification. An attempt is being made to identify her through fingerprints.
Mohamed, 39, has been charged with four counts of rape. The Medical Examiner is awaiting toxicology testing before determining the cause of death.
