Jefferson County, Co. - At 3:45 p.m. on October 5 Jeffco deputies were dispatched to the Laramie Building within the Jefferson County Government Campus after receiving a report that a young woman had been attacked by an unknown male.
The 18-year-old victim told authorities that a male suspect followed her into the ladies restroom on the 2nd floor of the building and grabbed her from behind. The male held her in a "bear hug" as she struggled to escape. The victim eventually freed herself from his grasp and fled from the bathroom unharmed. She then left the building and called a family member who in-turn contacted the Sheriff's Office.
The suspect is described as a white male, 6'0" tall, thin build, wearing blue jeans and a black "hoodie" pulled tightly around his face.
Anyone with information about this crime is urged to contact the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office tip line at 303-271-5612.
