Warwick police said in a news release today that a Hispanic male with a slight mustache, 20 to 30 years old, 5-foot-5 to 5-foot-9 and weighing 150 pounds, entered the Stop & Shop at 300 Quaker Lane, at about 5:40 p.m. Sunday. The police said the suspect had dark brown hair above the ears and parted high on his left side. He had on "dirty/baggy jeans with tethered legs" and dark low-rise sneakers with white markings. Video surveillance showed him entering wearing a dark tank top, described as possibly a woman's due to thin shoulder straps, baggy work jeans and dark sneakers. He had a white T-shirt thrown over a shoulder. The police asked that anyone with information contact the Warwick police at (401) 468-4233 or Providence police at (401) 272-3121. -- projo.com staff writer Michael P.

Then the man is seen in the video walking to and getting into an idling vehicle in the supermarket parking lot. He entered the driver's side and "reportedly assaults an adult female sitting in the passenger side with a long kitchen or steak knife," the statement says. The man drives the vehicle, with the passenger in it, out of the lot. He allegedly sexually assaulted her at Roger Willams Park and then fled, according to police.
