According to police, a 25-year-old medical student was jogging along the towpath trail on June 28 at around 9 o’clock. The attack happened on the trail near downtown Akron near W. Bartges Street.
AKRON , Ohio - A stranger assaulted a young woman jogging on a popular towpath and Akron police are still trying to find the man who did it.
The 101-mile towpath trail is traveled by millions of people every year and it’s a place where most people feel safe. “They need to patrol this a lot more and they need more cameras all over because people are doing things on this trail that shouldn’t be,” said towpath frequenter Peter Hunt. “We got a female that was assaulted on the towpath, and she has minor injuries, don’t know if we need a squad to check her out, but we do need law enforcement to look for the assailant,” a 911 caller said.
