he Loudoun County Sheriff ’s Office is investigating another case in which an armed man attacked a woman and told her to remove clothing. Only, this time, the victim was sexually assaulted. The latest incident is the fifth since last year. Around 9:30 p.m. Saturday, May 31, deputies were called to Reston Hospital Center, where a woman was being treated for an assault that happened around 5 a.m. on Stanford Square near Dulles Town Center. Two other cases, one Feb. 9 and one Feb. 14, also happened on Stanford Square. In Saturday’s attack, the 52-year-old victim reported a man knocked on the window of her vehicle and then opened her car door, brandished a firearm and demanded money. The man then ordered her out of her vehicle and told her to remove her pants. At one point during the robbery, the man sexually assaulted the victim, according to the report. The suspect fled after hearing the victim’s friend coming to meet her. He was described as black, about 6 feet tall and in his late 20s—a description that matches the other four assaults, although the suspect in the previous assaults was described as having a “medium complexion.” Detectives are working to determine

whether Saturday’s robbery is related to the similar earlier cases, according to agency spokeswoman Liz Mills. In Saturday’s assault, the man was wearing a blue hooded sweatshirt with the hood up to help conceal his face. Loudoun deputies are also investigating a robbery that happened about half an hour later, at 5:30 a.m., on East Severn Way, where a 62-year-old woman was found injured. According to the report, a man tried to grab her purse and after a brief struggle, he struck the woman with a blunt object, which the victim described as a handgun. The victim suffered injuries described as minor and the man ran away with the purse. In that case, the robber was described as being 5-feet-8-inches to 5-feet-10-inches tall, and wore a blue hooded sweatshirt and sunglasses. The suspect in that case also had the hood pulled up over his head to conceal his face. Anyone with any information regarding the cases is asked to contact Det. W. Promisel at 703-777-0475.
