Detectives from the Fairfax County Police Department’s Major Crimes Bureau are investigating a daytime burglary and attempted sexual assault after a man entered a woman’s home in Chantilly, Virginia.
Just after 12 p.m. Thursday, officers responded to the 14500 block of Iberia Circle after a woman said a stranger entered her residence through an unlocked door and attempted to sexually assault her, according to a release.
The victim was able to escape her house and contact the police. She was taken to a hospital for non-life-threatening injuries.
The suspect left on foot before police arrived to the scene. Police have shared a composite sketch of the man, described as 5-foot-6, wearing a long sleeve black shirt, dark pants and a light blue hospital-style mask.
