"I saw her. She was shaken up and upset, but very smart, obviously. Saw what was going on and ran. In fact, I think she called police even before she saw her mother," neighbor Maura Walsh said.
Police released a sketch of the suspect after having the victim sit down with a sketch artist. They describe the suspect as being white with black hair, scruffy facial hair and black, thick-rimmed glasses.
Police also released surveillance video of a dark-colored 2010-2014 Subaru Outback they believe the man was driving. The video was taken from a nearby home surveillance camera.
