Cops busted a suspect who allegedly attacked two women in Williamsburg during the early morning hours on Aug. 1, sexually assaulting one and attempting to grab the other, officials said.

Otoniel Mckenzie, 39, was charged with sex abuse, assault and criminal obstruction of breathing in connection to the pair of incidents, cops said late Monday. 

He allegedly first targeted a 27-year-old victim on North 3rd Street near Bedford Avenue at about 1:20 a.m., authorities said.

Mckenzie grabbed the woman from behind, placed his hand over her mouth and groped her as he demanded she stay quiet, cops said. 

The woman was able to flee and the suspect bolted, police said.

About 90 minutes later, Mckenzie tried to assault a 25-year-old woman nearby on North 6th Street and Roebling Street, but she managed to fight him off, according to police.

As the suspect went to pull her away, she struck him with her elbow and fled on foot, cops said.

Neither victim reported any physical injuries.
