Hours after a woman reported being attacked on a Fallbrook jogging path, San Diego County sheriff’s deputies were working on a suspect sketch.
According to sheriff’s officials, the victim was jogging while pushing a 2-year-old in a stroller near Lake Shore Park around 8:30 a.m. Wednesday.
That’s when officials say a man jumped out of the brushes and sexually assaulted her at knifepoint.
“He fled the area on foot a few moments later. She was thankfully able to give us a good description,” said Jan Caldwell with the sheriff’s department.
The suspect was described as over 6 feet tall with a beer belly. He has neatly trimmed dark hair and a full mustache and beard cut high on the neck, police said. He was wearing a black T-shirt with holes and black work pants.
Deputies have added extra patrols in the area.
They say there have been no similar incidents reported in the area.
