Allentown, PA – Pennsylvania State Police are asking for the public’s help in identifying a suspect allegedly involved in an assault last month at a Lehigh County hotel.
According to the Pennsylvania State Police Troop M – Bethlehem Barracks, the incident occurred on July 16 at the Days Hotel by Wyndham Allentown Airport/Lehigh Valley on Airport Road. Investigators said the suspect allegedly forced entry into a woman’s hotel room while she was asleep and assaulted her. When the victim awoke, the man fled the scene on foot.
Authorities described the suspect as a Black male between 16 and 25 years old, standing 6-foot to 6-foot-5, and weighing 150 to 200 pounds. He was reportedly wearing white socks, a white belt, black shorts with white lining on the bottom, a black New Balance long-sleeve jacket, and a gray shirt with a circular emblem on the front and the number “O” on the back. The man is said to be in possession of only one black Crocs shoe, as the other fell off while he fled.
