APD asking for public's help identifying suspect in reported sexual assault on trail ...Middle East

AUSTIN (KXAN) -- Police said they need the public's help identifying the suspect in an attempted sexual assault on an east Austin trail earlier this month.

The Austin Police Department Sex Crimes Unit released a sketch of the suspect Tuesday. The suspect was described by police as a Black male, possibly in his mid-20s, around 5'6"-5'9" in height and 200 lbs, with a "medium to heavy build" and no facial hair, per APD.

He was last seen wearing a black sweatshirt and black pants.

The incident happened on Saturday, Feb. 8.

APD officers responded to a "Sex Crime Urgent" call in the 6900 block of FM 969 Road around 9:30 a.m. The victim told police a man "grabbed her sexually and then ran away," according to APD.

KXAN spoke to the victim days after the incident. She elected to remain anonymous but told KXAN she was on the Southern Walnut Creek Trail, a trail she frequented when it happened.

The victim recounted the details of the attack, which can be read in our previous reporting here.

APD confirmed that case was the same as the one police released the sketch and details about Tuesday.
