Six assault cases

Washington, D.C. -- Another woman has come forward saying she was attacked near Howard University, police say. So far six attempted sexual assaults have been reported in one week.

The attacker is targeting women walking alone just off campus, police say. All six incidents have occurred some time between 4 a.m. and 9:50 a.m.

In two of the incidents, the suspect used a knife. In each case, the victim managed to escape.

While police say there's no conclusive evidence the incidents are related, the descriptions of the suspect, whom they consider armed and dangerous, are similar.
