Police report that the suspect approaches a victim in an "unprovoked" and "violent" attack, often striking the victim's head or face. 

The incidents have occurred between January 19, 2021, and January 21, 2021.

The investigation is ongoing and officers believe that there may have been other victims. 

The suspect's height is being described as approximately 5’8 to 5’9.

He is estimated to be between 20 to 25 with a thin to medium build and black hair.

"He was wearing a black hooded jacket with grey interior lining in the hood, black pants, and black shoes with a white stripe around the sole," police added.

Residents are being told not to approach the individual if they spot him as he is considered "violent and dangerous." Instead, they should call 911.
