Bellingham jogger attacked on trail

Bellingham Police are looking for a man who randomly attacked a woman jogging on a trail at Lake Padden Park on Saturday.

Bellingham Police have released a sketch of a man suspected of violently assaulting a woman in Lake Padden Park last week.

On Saturday, June 22, police said a jogger was knocked to the ground and punched multiple times by a man she was passing on a trail. Two witnesses came running after hearing the victim scream, causing the attacker to run away.

The assailant is described as an average-to-fit white man in his 30s, about 5’8" to 5’10", with a distinct, receded hairline. He was wearing blue jeans and possibly a gray shirt.

Investigators had a sketch artist work with a witness to release the following sketch of the suspect:
