East Point police are asking the public for help identifying a suspect accused of raping a woman last week at an area motel.
Officers responded to the Motel 6 on Virginia Avenue about 3:30 p.m. June 7 after a woman reported she had been sexually assaulted, police said in a news release.
The woman said the suspect came from the third-floor stairwell, but it’s unclear if he had a room at the motel.
He is described as 6-foot-1 and weighs approximately 300 pounds, East Point police said in a Facebook post. He was last seen wearing a black cap, a blue surgical mask, a dark T-shirt, gym shorts and sandals.
No additional details about the case were released. Anyone with information about the suspect or his whereabouts is asked to call East Point police.
Tipsters can remain anonymous, and be eligible for a cash reward, by contacting Crime Stoppers at 404-577-8477, texting information to 274637 or visiting the Crime Stoppers website.
