HCSO Release Sketch Of Subject For Incident In Cypress.

(Harris County, TX) Harris County Sheriff’s Office investigators are asking the public’s help in identifying a subject who attempted to abduct a juvenile female while out walking in her neighborhood.

On Sunday, October 15, 2017, at about 4:00 p.m., a 16-year old female was walking through the Coles Crossing subdivision and was at the intersection of Closewood Terrace Blvd and Ashland Landing Drive, when a black Ford F-150 pulled up and stopped in front of her.

The driver of the vehicle, described as a heavy set, middle-aged white male, with short brown hair, a clean shaven face and a deep voice, exited the vehicle and asked for directions.

The driver of the vehicle ultimately raised his shirt and exposed a large knife, which was in a sheath, and threatened her with death if she did not get into his vehicle.

The female, in fear for her life, complied with the instructions and entered the truck.

The female, when the vehicle came to a stop, successfully fled from the vehicle and flagged down a nearby citizen to call 9-1-1.

The suspect vehicle was captured on video surveillance cameras and the composite sketch is attached.

Crime Stoppers will pay up to $5,000 for information leading to the charging and/or arrest of the suspect in this case. Information may be reported by calling 713-222-TIPS (8477) or submitted online at www.crime-stoppers.org.
