Police Probe Possible Sexual Assault At Belmont Motel
BELMONT (CBS SF) - Belmont police have identified but not yet named a suspect in a possible sexual assault last Thursday at a motel in the 1100 block of Shoreway Road.
Officers responded to the motel around 2:15 a.m. after receiving a report of a possible overdose, police Capt. Patrick Halleran said.
They arrived to find an unconscious 19-year-old woman near the motel pool.
An initial investigation revealed that the woman may have been sexually assaulted, police said. She was treated at the scene by medics and taken to a hospital with injuries that were not life-threatening.
Police believe the woman was with a 23-year-old San Mateo man the night of the incident. The man was interviewed and the motel room was processed by crime scene investigators, who found evidence of drug and alcohol use, police said.
The case remains under investigation and will be submitted to the San Mateo County District Attorney's Office for review and to contemplate charges.
