Girl Attacked by Man on Parker St.

An unidentified man attacked a young girl on Parker Street last night, but escaped before police arrived on the scene.

Police Lieutenant William Nixon reported that shortly after 10:30 p.m. a frenzied woman called the station, revealing that while walking down Parker Street, a man approached her.

Nixon immediately dispatched a car in the scene, but the mystery man had disappeared. The girl would not give here name to the police.

According to Nixon, this is the first incident of this kind in some time.
