In Evans v. New York City Hous. Auth., 176 A.D.2d 221 (1st Dept. 1991), lv denied 19 N.Y.2d 754 (1992), the IAS Court granted leave to serve a late notice of claim, holding that the existence of a police aided report indicated that the respondent New York City Housing Authority ("NYCHA") had actual knowledge of essential facts underlying the crime of rape. The Appellate Division, First Department, reversed, noting that nothing in the aided report connected the rape with a defective lock or lack of security which was the basis of that petitioner's notice of claim.
