Madison WI Jan 26 2012 A woman shopping at a far west side grocery store has a security guard to thank for her safety, after a man grabbed her coat to get her to go with him, but left when the guard showed up.
The attempted assault was reported at 6:12 p.m. at Metcalfe’s Market, 7455 Mineral Point Road, a grocery store that formerly was Cub Foods.
Madison police said in a news release the 38-year-old Madison woman was very shaken by the incident.
“She was shopping when the suspect approached and tried to engage her in a sexually suggestive conversation,” said police spokesman Joel DeSpain.
The suspect then allegedly grabbed the woman’s coat and said “You’re coming with me.”
“At that moment, the security guard came into the area and the suspect walked away,” DeSpain said.
The suspect is a black male, late 20s to early 30s, 6 feet, 2 inches tall, large build, with an Afro-styled haircut and beard.
