Edgefield woman reports sexual assault over holiday weekend
web
posted July 8, 2008
EDGEFIELD – An Edgefield woman called
police after being sexually assaulted in the early morning hours of
July 4. The Brooks Street woman told officers when they arrived that
she was asleep on the couch when she heard a knock on the door just
before 3 am. When she looked out of her window she thought it was her
boyfriend at the boor. When she inquired if it was him by name the male
answered, “yes, uh huh,” police reports state. It was then that she
opened the door and the assault took place.
The woman told police that the man, who at the time she still believed
to be her boyfriend, began to fondle her. The two made their way to the
nearby kitchen and the woman turned on the light and saw a man she did
recognize.
She confronted the man telling him, “You came into my house and did
this? I’ll kill you, police reports stated. She then picked up a “big
stick” and the man fled. The children in the home also saw the man as
he fled out of the door.
The Sheriff’s Bloodhound Team was called to the scene as officers began
patrolling the area for the suspect, described as a light-skinned black
male, around 5 ‘ 10” tall, approximately 220 pounds with low cut hair.
He was wearing a white tank top shirt with a black shirt thrown over
the shoulder, dark shorts and white tennis shoes.
Bloodhounds tracked two trails that let to possible suspects that did
not fit the description. The victim was treated by EMS on the scene.
The case is currently under investigation by the Edgefield Police
Department.
