Officers made contact with a 14-year old female who said she was walking to school when a gray four door sedan pulled up next to her and asked for directions. The 14-year old told the Hispanic male driving the car that she didn’t know where the street was located. The victim continued to walk away.

The suspect exited his car and grabbed the female around her waist and attempted to take her down to the ground as he yelled for her to get down. The victim screamed for help and fought the suspect. The suspect covered the victim’s mouth with his hand to prevent her from screaming. During the assault, an unknown older female walked past the alley and looked in the direction of the suspect and the victim. The suspect noticed that the female was looking at him so he released his hold on the victim. The suspect ran to his car and fled the area. A composite drawing of this suspect is attached.

The Oxnard Police Department’s Sexual Assault & Family Protection Unit is currently investigating this incident. Durante la investigación, Detective Chacon discovered there were other incidents that were similar in nature with the same possible suspect. In those incidents, the suspect approached several other juvenile females and asked for directions. In those specific incidents once the suspect gained the attention of the female victims, he would expose his genitals to the females. The suspect in these cases never made physical contact with the victims. The first incident involving contact with a victim was on 9/22/15.
