Roswell police are looking for a man who broke into a home and attacked a woman while she was sleeping early Wednesday.

The incident happened about 6 a.m. on Old Ferry Way, according to Roswell police spokeswoman Lisa Holland.

“The suspect entered the home from a back window and surprised the resident while she was in her bedroom sleeping,” she said in an email. “The suspect began to drag the female out of her bed and tried to force himself on her. The victim fought off her attacker, and he left the house.”

The victim was not seriously injured, but was transported to a local hospital, Holland said.
