UK-- Five years after he committed an attempted rape near a Norwich Cathedral, a man has been convicted largely thanks to DNA evidence. This is according to eveningnews24.co.uk.
The assault happened in June 2003, when the 36-year-old man attacked and tried to rape a woman. The intended victim got away when she lashed out at the attempted rapist and scratched the man's face.
In October 2007, the Southampton man was stopped for a minor motoring offence. Officers took his DNA at the police station after the man became abusive, according to reports. That DNA was found to match samples lifted from the woman's fingernails in the 2003 assault.
Kudos to this woman for fighting back! Her actions has ensured that this offender is now off the streets.
