A legally blind 93-year-old woman was able to pull an alarm and summon help from neighbors as a stranger battered and then sexually assaulted her in her apartment, the Broward Sheriff's Office said.
About 2:30 a.m. Monday, the woman had taken trash to the receptacle at the end of her hall and was surprised by Clyde Alvims Leandre, 22, of Delray Beach, according to Detective Ian Kuechler.

"Initially some of the other residents of the building attempted to subdue the subject," the detective said. "However, they basically explained that he seemed to have about the strength of 10 men and was oblivious to them being in the room. He continued to grasp on to the female victim and restrained her in her bedroom."
Four deputies responded to a 911 call and also tried to remove Leandre, who was not wearing pants, according to the detective's report.
"He ignored their commands and he was tased," Kuechler said. "It had zero affect on him. They issued several strikes to him, again. It took four men to remove him."
