A man posed as police to force his way into a woman’s home, Alabama police say. He still hasn’t been identified.
Loxley police said they are searching for the man who is accused of posing as a police officer to break into a 49-year-old woman’s home and assault her on Thursday, Oct. 20.
The woman told officers she heard a man knocking on her door and shouting “police” shortly after 4 a.m. Thursday, police said. As she went to open the front door, a man “forced his way inside,” hitting her in the head with a bat before sexually assaulting her, police said.
He is described as a white man in his early- to mid-40s with dark hair in a tight cut, according to police. He is estimated to be between 5 feet, 10 inches and 6 feet tall, and he has an earring in his right ear and a Jesus fish tattoo on his lower left forearm.
Loxley Police Department said its investigation is ongoing.
Loxley is about 40 miles northwest of Pensacola, Florida.
