At about 7:15 p.m. Wednesday, March 2, a 14-year-old girl was at a club volleyball practice in the gymnasium of Eich Intermediate School on Sierra Gardens Drive. She stepped outside to cool off, and a stranger approached her, grabbed her by the arm and tried to pull her away from the gym doors. She broke free a few seconds later, ran back into the gym and told her coach what happened. She was upset, but said she was not hurt.
The suspect was described as a “chubby” Hispanic male in his 30s, approximately 6’0″ tall, with a dirty appearance. He had short dark hair, little to no facial hair, and was wearing dark clothing, including a long-sleeved shirt. He ran toward the greenbelt south of the school.
