This is Jackie Rossetti from the City of Somerville with an important message on behalf of the Somerville Police Department:
On Monday, April 21, the Somerville Police Department received a report that a man assaulted a woman in the early morning hours while she was walking near the 300 block of Beacon St. This incident is similar to another assault that was reported within the last week in Cambridge. Both victims were walking home from the Porter Square MBTA station. The suspect in the Somerville assault is described as a thin black male, wearing dark clothing. The suspect in the Cambridge assault is described as a man in all dark clothing.
The Somerville Police Department is working to identify and apprehend the suspects as quickly as possible, and we wish to alert residents to take safety precautions when walking at night, while reaffirming that no victim is ever to blame for the actions of an attacker.
For more information, including safety tips and a suspect description, visit www.somervillema.gov.
Anyone with information regarding any of these assaults is asked to contact the Somerville Police Department at 617.625.1600. Thank you for your vigilance and assistance. This e-mail has been sent to you by the CITY OF SOMERVILLE. To maximize their communication with you, you may be receiving this e-mail in addition to a phone call with the same message. If you wish to discontinue this service, please inform the CITY OF SOMERVILLE either IN PERSON, by US MAIL, or by TELEPHONE at 617-628-7669 or REPLY TO THIS EMAIL.
