Detroit Police Searching For Violent Sexual Predator
DETROIT (WWJ) - Detroit police are looking for help in locating a violent sexual predator.
Detective Robert Cain says it was a violent assault that happened on Feb. 19 around 9 p.m. near McNichols and Greenfield reports WWJ's Sandra McNeill.
"The lady was in her car waiting for her sister who was in a clinic - this male approached her, forced her to open her car door at gun point. He then got into the vehicle, grabbed her purse, threw it out of the vehicle to a second person and then ordered her to drive down the street - Fern and Fourth street - where she was sexually assaulted," said Cain.
There is no clear surveillance of the suspects but the victim was able to give a description.
"We have surveillance video but it was dark out - we can see the video but we can't make out the person, we can see a person ... we can't make out the face or anything that we can describe," he said.
Police continue to investigate and are exploring the possibility that this suspect(s) have struck before.
