SAN DIEGO (KGTV) – Police are looking for a man suspected of entering a Linda Vista home overnight and sexually assaulting a young girl.
San Diego Police said officers were called to the 2800 block of Wellington Street at around 1:45 a.m. Thursday after a resident reported a man had entered their home through an unlocked side door.
According to the SDPD Watch Commander, the man inappropriately touched a 5-year-old girl who was sleeping and then left the house.
The girl told her father what happened, and he called 911.
Officers, with the help of K-9s, searched the neighborhood but could not find the man linked to the incident.
San Diego Police described the man as Caucasian or Hispanic, about 5 feet 8 or 5 feet 9 inches tall and weighing between 160-180 pounds. Police said the man was last seen wearing a dark jacket -- possibly a windbreaker -- and dark pants.
