Police have released a photo of the man they think tried to assault a woman near the College Park campus of the University of Maryland earlier this week.
Prince George’s County police said the man asked the woman twice for help finding a lost dog, then grabbed the woman on Guilford Drive, just south of campus, at around 10 p.m. on Aug. 6.
He tried to drag her to a parking lot, but someone saw what was happening and shouted. That scared the suspect off, and he ran away toward Hartwick Road, police said.
The woman wasn’t hurt.
