Man Wanted In Connection With Assault, Attempted Rape In San Bernardino

SAN BERNARDINO (CBSLA.com) — Authorities have released a sketch of a man they say is wanted in connection with the assault and attempted rape of a woman in San Bernardino.

The incident unfolded near Del Rosa Drive and Baseline Street early Sunday morning.

That's when detectives say a woman who was walking to work was attacked.

"Sometimes I have to walk to work. And it's scary," said Anjelica Corbett who lives in the area.

Corbett says it wasn't too long ago she too was sexually assaulted and hopes this person is caught very soon.

"It put an emotional scar and damage on me," she said.

Detectives say the victim fought back, punching the suspect in the face several times and poked his eye. She was able to break free and run away.

Those who recognize the man or have any information were asked to call the San Bernardino Sheriff's Department.
