Two migrants were arrested for a knifepoint rape in Coney Island — including one who was released from jail less than two months ago after sexually assaulting a different woman at a city-funded shelter, authorities said Monday.Daniel Davon-Bonilla, 24, of Nicaragua, allegedly grabbed a 46-year-old woman and threw her to the ground before raping her while holding a knife to her throat Sunday around 9 p.m. under the Riegelmann Boardwalk, cops and the sources said.
His alleged accomplice, identified as Mexican migrant Leovando Moreno, 37, is accused of striking the woman’s 34-year-old boyfriend with a pipe when he tried to stop the vicious assault, the sources said.
It wasn’t the first sex crime bust for Davon-Bonilla, who is believed to have crossed the US border illegally in Texas in December 2022.
Four months later, he was arrested for allegedly raping a woman at a La Quinta Hotel on Third Avenue in Gowanus that was turned into a migrant shelter.
He spent about a year behind bars before taking a plea deal that put him back on the streets in June, according to corrections officials and Brooklyn prosecutors.
