Kansas City Police have released two composite sketches of the man suspected of sexually assaulting a 71-year-old woman multiple times in her home in the 3200 block of East 10th Street on Dec. 15.

The victim worked with a forensic sketch artist and detectives to produce two composite sketches of the suspect. A composite is not a portrait of a person, but a grouping of characteristics that narrows down the search and eliminates other groups.

The suspect has been described as a black, “wiry” male approximately 35 to 40 years old and approximately 6 feet tall weighing 165 to 175 pounds.

He is bald, but wore a black silk cloth tied around his head. He has a medium complexion, brown eyes, a goatee and mustache. The victim said he is soft spoken and has a lower voice. He also has two scars on his left forearm that appear to be from burns.
