June 10, 2011

    In 2007 the Piscataway Township Police Department and the Middlesex County Prosecutors Office began the investigation of a Sexual Assault that occurred sometime during the early morning hours of July 4th.

 

The victim told investigators that she was at her residence in Piscataway, which is near the Plainfield border, and went to sleep.  Sometime during the early morning hours she awoke to find a man standing next to her bed.   The suspect assaulted the victim and the victim struggled with her assailant.  The suspect then sexually assaulted the victim. 

 

 After the assault the suspect made comments to the victim that he wanted to go to East Orange and then changed the location to Newark. The victim drove the suspect in her car to the area of Meeker Street and Broad Street in Newark.  The suspect demanded cash from the victim.  The victim used her ATM card to get cash for the suspect. After receiving the money the suspect had the victim drop him off in an area that she described as both industrial and residential (Which was later determined to be by the Seth Boyden Public Housing Complex).

 

The suspect was described as a black male, approximately 5’10” tall, clean shaven, short hair, with a crevice in his forehead, a full face.  The suspect weighed approximately 235 to 240 pounds and had broad shoulders, large arms with a slight belly and was approximately 25 to 35 years old.  The suspect was wearing a short sleeved sports jersey with a number on it.
