The Metropolitan Police Department has released a sketch of the man believed to have been the perpetrator of an April 16 assault.

The early Friday morning assault occurred at the 3300 block of Prospect Street, less than a block away from late night hotspot Tuscany Café.  The suspect allegedly approached the victim from behind, ordered her to give him her possessions, and then he proceeded to put his hand up her dress and tore a piece of her clothing.

The suspect is described as a black man who is 6-foot-3 with a medium build and short black hair.

This attack is just one of a string of sexual assaults that have occurred on or around the Georgetown campus in the past year.

Anyone who recognizes the individual in the sketch, or who may have any information regarding the assault can contact MPD at 202-727-9099.   If you would prefer that your tip be anonymous you can call D.C. Crime Solvers at 866-411-TIPS.
