Assault Victim Able to Describe Assailant

The El Dorado County Sheriff’s Office is investigating the physical assault on a South Lake Tahoe woman that was originally reported in Alpine County on October 6, 2013. The victim has now determined that the assault occurred in the vicinity of Meyers, South Lake Tahoe. Details of the original account have changed, possibly due in part to the injuries the victim suffered in the violent physical attack.

The suspect is described as a white make adult, late 40’s to 55 years of age, 6-1 to 6-2, with a stocky build. Unknown hair color, shaggy moustache, brown with some silver coloring. Facial skin has deep pores, pitted, with reddish hue. See attached composite of the suspect.

The Lake Tahoe Secret Witness program has authorized a $500 reward for information leading to the arrest of the suspect. Information can be directed to Detective Paul Kuhn at 530-573-3022, or Secret Witness at 530-541-6800.
