The Louisville Metro Police Department has released new images of the serial robber who has been assaulting and robbing women with a handgun over the last several weeks in southwest Louisville.
The images were released Friday morning.
Sgt. Matt Sanders, a spokesman for the Louisville Metro Police Department, said based on their investigation so far, this suspect primarily targets women in or around apartment complexes.
The suspect has been seen on camera, lurking in an apartment complex for hours and at one point, the alleged suspect pulled up a chair on someone’s lower-level patio and just hung out waiting. He for the perfect victim.
The incidents happened off Terry Road, near West Pages Lane, Greenwood Drive, and Dixie Highway near East Pages Lane. Police now believe “there is a pattern emerging.”
The latest incident happened in Valley Station early Sunday just before 6 a.m. in the 4500 block of Kennedy Place Circle near Stonestreet, according to a news release from the Louisville Metro Police Department.
The first attack occurred just before 4 a.m. on June 25th.
One victim said a man approached her as she was walking to her front door, hit her on the head with his gun, stole her wallet and then ran away.
She had to be taken to the hospital and needed several stiches.
Investigators said at least seven women have been attacked. Police believe one of those victims was also sexually assaulted.
The incidents have typically occurred in areas “relatively close to each other” between midnight and 5 a.m., according to police.
All incidents have also occurred at apartment complexes: three times at the River Breeze Apartments, twice at Moss Creek Apartments, and once at the Finish Line Apartments.
Louisville Metro Police said the description of the suspect and use of a handgun in each case is similar.
