Search on for attempted rape suspect in Covington
COVINGTON, Wash. -- King County sheriff's deputies are looking for a man suspected in an attempted rape of a woman.
The man is sought in connection with an incident that occurred on Saturday, Nov. 18 near a bus stop at SE 267th and Timberlane Way SE.
Investigators said a woman in her late 30s was walking down the sidewalk when a man came up on her from behind, pressed a metal object into her back and forced her toward several trees. The man uttered the word "sex" in the woman's ear before breaking into "broken Spanish," according to deputies.
The woman managed to knock the unidentified metal object out of his hand, deputies said, then kicked him and scratched his face. She managed to get away, but did suffer a large cut on her hand.
The suspected attacker is described as a man between 28 and 30 years old. He is said to be approximately 5-foot-10 with a thin build. He has a beard, and his left eyebrow is pierced. He was last seen wearing a long white spike-style earrings and a black doo-rag.
Anyone with information on the man's identity or whereabouts is urged to call 206-296-3311 and reference case number12-268229.

Vince what difference does it make what his nationality is, he's a rapist and if you have daughters, a sister, a mother, grandmother or a wife they are at risk. Stop it I say, get real dude!
Kudos to the authorities for "releasing" the sketch to the public.
Â
Hopefully this would-be rapist will be soon found, and efficiently neutralized in the most appropriately deserving manner possible.
he is no Confucius, although he looks slightly confused. Nose and lips from a black man, eyes and brows from a central american latino, and ears from .... Yoda? Was that politically incorrect enough? Sorry, I have no quarrels with any groups, it's just that the sketch kinda produces a grotesk image. If he really looks like that, he'll be found in no time.
Once again KOMO goes out of their way to edit the description of the suspect.
Â
Why can't you people just copy and paste straight from the Covington police website??
Â
Here's the real description..not the lie PC KOMO edited. Â
Â
"The suspect is described as a black male, 28-30 year old, 5â10â with a thin build. He has medium skin tone, sunken cheeks and a Fu Manchu style beard. He was last seen wearing a black âdoo rag,â a grey hooded sweatshirt and dark jeans with a bright colored panther painted or sewn on the pant leg. He also had long white spike earrings and a silver hoop/ball in his left eyebrow."
Idiot alert. Just another punk with piercings.He's probably not even smart enough to remove them now.

 @Amber Palmer And you know it's very reliable how?
Is it just me, or are there always really scary rape crimes happening in Covington?
Look everyone!!! Target practice!!!!
 @Wolfen are you calling open season??
 @Susabelle At the rate our society is deteriorating? MY guns are oiled, polished, locked and loaded. One problem though.....where do you get a tag for a "Northwest Scumbag" and are they protected?
 @MargeGunderson  @Wolfen There is a Santa......
 @Wolfen  @Susabelle I'll issue you both a tag for unlimited Northwest Scumbags. And for every 10 you bring in, you earn another season-long tag for a critter of your choice.
 @Wolfen Absolutely they are protected! You have to get a special license. But someday soon I hope they will open this up to the general public. My husband and I would be the first in line for our season tags.......hopefully a high limit special drawing too...
There are fewer places to hide now days. Cameras are everywhere. Not only that, I'm looking for him too.
 @Elvis Happy Hunting! :)
 @Elvis Feel free to set it on fire; I'll even buy you a new lighter and a can of gas to throw on him.Â
Illegals aren't criminals, they're DREAMERS!!
Â
What's really scary is in Covington these days, this ghetto miscreant doesn't even stand out. Sad, really.
YIKES! My neighborhood!  Extra vigilance till he's caught!
 @Photogal58 He isn't the only one out there unfortunately; extra vigilance at all times, or at least until our so-called justice system starts erasing these scumbags upon conviction.Â
Fu Manchu.
kicked him... well done - glad she got away
If she scratched his face, hopefully they can get some DNA from it. I'm guessing this is not this dirtbag's first rodeo...
so....is this guy black, white, latino, asian?????
Komo staff writers will only identify the race of the criminal if the perp is white. It's their sad little effort at being p.c. instead of just reporting the facts.
 @DrAmerika At least KOMO got the color of his "doo rag" correct. And they actually said the word BLACK! Maybe the Mayans were right.........
 @MargeGunderson  @Wolfen  @DrAmerika hmmm, you rude person you! That is interesting, my black friends prefer black......One friend of mine joked that I should be called a British American........
 @Wolfen  @DrAmerika I actually had someone snottily reprimand me recently, telling me that I'm "rude, uncivilized and behind the times," because I didn't use the phrase African American when referring to Africans in Africa, who have never set foot in America.Â
I was so boggled I didn't even think to ask, but it was probably a well-trained KOMO editor (if they still even have them on staff) fresh out of PC Skool.Â
 @DrAmerika Very true, but they aren't much for finding or reporting the relevant facts even when it isn't related to race.Â
 @Vince yes
 @Vince Based on the photo - all of the above.  Based on the story he was speaking Spanish.
I cant wait until he is caught (which should be very soon with looks like that) because I want to see the mug shot next to this drawing.
 @Rockberry I want to see the post mortem pic instead. With a nice gaping hole in this freak's forehead.
 @Wolfen  @Rockberry Why not; it certainly wouldn't leave a mess since there is nothing to spill out of the hole.Â
 @Rockberry I look at these and wonder how close they really are....this guy looks like something bad out of Lord of the Rings or something..........
This piece of human trash shouldn't be that hard to find, start looking under rocks..
 @Windowseat No potato bug deserves to be around that.
I am so excited that the Zombie Apocalypse has finally begun!!!!!!
November 18th was a Sunday. Â Was it Saturday, the 17th, or Sunday, the 18th?
The only thing missing from this fellow's sketch is a set of pointed horns on his head.
One ugly mother******. Lets get him off our streets, woods, etc.
