Western Cape police are on the hunt for a person of interest who can shed light on an attack on a 75-year-old elderly woman who was robbed, stabbed, and almost raped while walking her dog at the popular Rondebosch Common in Cape Town last month.
Police spokesperson Anelisiwe Manyana said the attack occurred on Sunday, 21 April, shortly after 11:00 while the woman was walking her dog in the area.
"She was approached by a suspect. He demanded her cellphone and money. He then ripped the victim's pants and attempted to rape her," Manyana added.
