The lists exclude domestic violence and focus only on violent assult/robbery.
If you google the above list you'll get a DVD reference on Ebay but that's not my source.Statistically the 5 most common assaults against women are:
1. The victim was approached from the rear/side/front, a threat was made with a weapon, and then the weapon was hidden. Then the victim's right upper arm was held by the attacker's left hand and the victim was led away.
2. A silent or rushing approach was made from the victim's rear, and then a rear neck/head lock applied and the victim dragged away.
3. The same approach as in #2, with a rear waist grab. The victim was carried/dragged away, normally into bushes/alley etc.
4. The victim was pinned to a wall with a throat grab with the attacker's left hand. A weapon-shown threat was made, and then the weapon hidden, and the victim led away.
5. The victim was approached from rear/ front/side. The attacker grabbed the victim's hair with his left hand, and then she was dragged away.
The following list is also waiting to be verified. Obviously this is different than Patrick McCarthy's list and/or the list from the Bubishi.
