The brave and heroic act of a young DC man helped save a woman
who was being raped on 16th Street NW in Washington, DC. – While on his way home, Ketrell Ferguson happened upon an assault in progress where a woman was being raped. Mr. Ferguson risked his own life by picking up a stick and a brick and repeatedly hitting the suspect who ran but was later caught by police. – Court documents accuse 23-year-old Alemen Gonzalo of both sexual abuse and kidnapping. Ketrell says he doesn’t want to be called a hero, but by any measure of the word that’s exactly what he is. The Concerned Citizen thinks our city needs more young men like Ketrell Ferguson who dare to take a stand against crime instead of just turning a blind eye.
