Des Moines police asking public's help to locate suspects in assault, robbery of woman

Des Moines Police Department detectives are asking the public for help in identifying a potential suspect in a "violent" assault and robbery that left a woman hospitalized for several days. According to police, the 35-year-old victim was with friends at a bar on the northwest side of Des Moines waiting for a rideshare service when she was approached by three individuals— two Black men and one white woman.

She was then assaulted and abandoned, unconscious, in a wooded area near the 2400 block of Hickman Road. Read: https://www.weareiowa.com/article/new...
