Crime(s): Assault with a Deadly Weapon

Agency: San Diego County Sheriff’s Department

A female adult victim was confronted by a knife-wielding suspect inside an elevator at her apartment complex.  The suspect placed the knife against the victim’s throat, warning her not to scream.  She began to struggle, during which time she sustained a minor cut across her throat.  She fled the elevator and called police.  During their investigation they learned that a suspect who seemingly matched the composite lived in a nearby apartment complex.  He was arrested and tried as an adult for the crime. Later, he was sentenced to prison.
