ROMULUS, Mich. – Romulus police are looking for the "coward" who they say sexually assaulted an 18-year-old flight attendant early Monday morning in her hotel room.
"This coward of a suspect who preys on innocent females is dangerous and should not be allowed to share in the same freedoms as our law-abiding citizens," the police department said in a statement.
Police released the attached surveillance video and photos of the attacker.
Police said the victim was dropped off at a Days Inn hotel with other coworkers via taxi before the assault. The attacker arrived in a separate car and was seen loitering around the hotel, but later disappeared, police said.
Police said they're unsure how the attacker got into the victim's room.
"We know that someone out there knows who committed this heinous crime, and we need to hear from them. While we are dedicated to bringing this suspect to justice, we are asking the public to be alert, and to call us if you see someone displaying suspicious, odd or strange behavior," the police department said.
