Authorities are looking for the suspect after a series of disturbing kidnapping attempts and attacks near the Tucson campus of the University of Arizona. Report says, three different women, at least two of whom are college students, were involved in the events. In all of them, the attacker tried to take the victims hostage, which caused a lot of concern and got the cops involved.
The most recent incident happened on Sunday. A female student said that a man attacked her from behind and ran away when she screamed. The student was lucky that they weren’t hurt. Before this, another victim said they were being followed by a driver who looked like the suspect. This gave detectives important information. The suspect is said to be a guy who may be Hispanic and is between 5 feet 10 inches and 6 feet tall. He has a medium to heavy build and his hair is buzz-cut close to his head.
In previous incidents, between December 6 and 8, the suspect used a dark purple four-door hatchback or crossover car to make similar attempts. Giving a thorough description of the suspect and his car has been a big part of the investigation. The investigation has been led by the Tucson Police Department, with help from university police. They are asking for help from the community by using a camera record to help with the search.
