A female jogger in Memorial Park was violently attacked on August 10, leaving her hospitalized. The Houston Police Department is now seeking help from the community to find the attacker.

The HPD has released a sketch of the suspect. Described as a man in his early to mid-20s, he was reported to have shoulder-length, wavy black hair and was seen wearing a white shirt and dark shorts. In an act of violence that has seemingly no motive, the victim recounted her attacker accusing her of having run over his brother prior to the beating, according to Houston Police.

The case has narrowed down to a particular individual, as the detectives released a sketch of the Hispanic male suspect wanted in this alarming assault. According to the Houston Police, having shoulder-length black hair, the suspect remains at large. Not forgetting the urgency of this case, the authorities urge anyone with information that might clarify the muddied waters of this case to step forward.

With specificity that brings us closer to apprehension and, perhaps, to understanding, the HPD Major Assaults Division patiently awaits any leads. They invite the community to contact them at 713-308-8800 or Crime Stoppers at 713-222-TIPS (8477).
