Police Investigate Pool House Sexual Assault

It was late — 3:45 a.m. on Saturday morning — on North Scott Street in Rosslyn.

The woman had just walked into her apartment complex’s pool house to use the bathroom. That’s when police say a man confronted her, forced her to the ground and allegedly tried to put his hand down her pants.

She fought back, struggled with the suspect, and eventually he ran off.

Now, police are asking for the public’s help in finding him.

Investigators released a composite rendering of the suspect (left).

He is described as a white Hispanic male in his early 20’s, about 5’7″ and 160 lbs with short dark hair. He was wearing a black chef’s style jacket with white lettering on the chest, police said.

If you recognize the man, you’re asked to call the Arlington Police Tip Line at 703-228-4242. Witnesses can also call Arlington County Crime Solvers at 866-411-TIPS (8477).
