According to police, at about 4 a.m. on Wednesday, January 29, officers responded a disturbance at a business in the 6600 block of W. Wilshire Blvd.

A female employee told police that a man came to the store to buy cigarettes. He left after asking the employee a few personal questions. However, the employee said the suspect returned a short time later and approached her.

The victim said she felt uncomfortable and went around to the register area. That's when she said the suspect followed her, attacked her from behind and grabbed her upper body.
