Atlanta police have released a detailed description of a suspect accused of forcing a woman into his truck and raping her more than two weeks ago.

The incident occurred Feb. 21 near Lakewood Freeway. The suspect, driving an older model burgundy Toyota truck, abducted the woman as she walked along Allison Court at Plaza Lane, an Atlanta police spokeswoman said. The victim noted several distinguishing features about the vehicle.

On the driver's side, an interior door panel was missing and the rear wheel was smaller than the front, police report. Tape covered a rear sliding glass window while a rear view mirror was missing. The windows still intact were tinted.

The truck's brown interior was messy, with ripped seats and tools strewn about the floor board, police said.

The suspect is in his late 30s and has a chipped front tooth and two tear drop tattoos under his right eye, according to the victim.

Police ask anyone with information to contact Crime Stoppers at 404-577-8477.
