imageA 17-year-old cross-dressing man fought off an attempted rape after being dragged into the woods Sunday evening in Athens by another man, police say.
The attack unfolded about 6:30 p.m. when a man riding a bicycle started stalking the teen, who was walking in East Athens, police told the Athens Banner-Herald. The man caught up with the teen and dragged him into the woods.
The attacker started to take off the teen's clothes, tearing his shirt and yanking off his boots; he realized when he stripped off the teen's pants that the victim was male, too, police said.
