UWPD investigates off-campus sexual assault

An unidentified female UW-Madison student reported she was sexually assaulted early Saturday morning, according to a UW Police Department incident report.

Though the location of the assault is still unconfirmed, police believe the crime, which the victim reported around 3 a.m. Saturday, occurred off campus.

UWPD has yet to identify the suspect who is described as a 5-foot-9-inch male likely between the ages of 19 and 24. He has a thin build and short, spiked blond hair, according to the report.

The suspect was last seen wearing a blue plaid shirt with its sleeves cut off, a straw cowboy hat and jeans.

The victim reported not knowing the assailant.

The case is still under investigation and UWPD encourages anyone with pertinent information about this or any crime to contact 608-264-COPS.
