City police were called to a home shortly before 9 a.m. when a 25-year-old woman said she had been attacked about two hours earlier. 

The woman told police she accepted a ride from an "unknown male" in Hoboken, who drove to a location not familiar to the victim, the prosecutor's office said. The man assaulted the woman there, she told police. 

That same day a woman said she was sexually assaulted in a Jersey City hotel. On Monday, two women said they were assaulted by a man with a knife in separate incidents just hours apart. 

Asked whether a single man was being considered a suspect in two or more of the assaults, a spokesman for the prosecutor's office Wednesday declined to comment. 

Anyone with information about this incident or any of the other assaults is asked to call the Hudson County prosecutor at 201-915-1234 or to leave an anonymous tip at http://www.hudsoncountyprosecutorsofficenj.org/homicide-tip/
