She said he pulled away from him and tried to cover herself, pulling up her underwear and pushing down her skirt. He threatened to put her back in handcuffs, she said.
"I told him I didn't want him to touch me like that," she said.
Tolstoy then moved towards her, she said.
"He went to grab me and I told him to stop," she said. "He broke the strap of my shirt when he grabbed me."
Tolstoy then looked rattled, according to Naomi.
"It was like he stopped because he would have to explain how he broke the strap," she said.
She said he told her what to say:
"If they ask you how your strap broke, you tell them you always tie it and it just came loose."
No arrests were made.
"I went upstairs and saw that her strap was broken," Raheem said. "I asked her if she was all right and she said the cop was touching her. She looked nervous and frightened. She was real upset."
Naomi told him that she was bleeding.
"She said that [the officer] had his hand down there and it hurt," Raheem said.
They walked to nearby Frankford Hospital. She told the emergency room staff that she felt "uncomfortable - down there" and didn't want to give details.
"I was just too embarrassed to tell anybody," she said.
Yet nurses immediately suspected that she had been sexually assaulted, she said.
" 'I know there is something going on,' " she said the nurse told her.
The staff called uniformed cops, who took Naomi and Raheem to Episcopal Hospital, where the police Special Victims Unit is situated, Raheem said.
Nurses ordered a rape kit and alerted SVU investigators - standard hospital policy.
