Bradley County continuing search for rape suspect bitten by victim

Arkansas-Ole Miss Live Blog

The Bradley County Sheriff's Office is still looking for information about a suspect who broke into a Wilkinson Road home on Sept. 14 and raped the woman inside.

Detectives have received plenty of tips about who the man might be. But as of today they have not been able to pin down an actual suspect.

Police describe the white man as at least 6 feet tall and abut 38 years old. He is slender but with broad shoulders. On the night of the rape, he wore dark clothes and hid his face.

When the man broke into the house, according to the Sheriff's Office, the woman heard a commotion in another room. She left her room to try to figure out what the noise was about, and that is when the man grabbed her. The victim bit and scratched him during the crime, though those telling marks may have healed by this point.

Anyone with information about the crime can call the Criminal Investigations Division at 423-728-7336.
