DETROIT (WWJ) – Detroit police have released a sketch and video of the man believed to be responsible for sexually assaulting an 80-year-old woman last weekend.
Authorities said on Monday they were searching for a suspect who broke into a home on Memorial Street – near the Southfield Freeway and Plymouth Road – around 9 p.m. Sunday and sexually assaulted the elderly woman.
