"Although the victims primarily have been elderly women, there is no indication of a specific pattern to the man's actions, he said."

This fact apparently is just an aside. The next victim could well be a young, military aged male with a high and tight. Notice that they also fail to describe the attacker though, if he was a 7' tall White guy with shoulder length red hair, speaking with a Galway accent, I think they may have included that.

The Woodland Hills crime
Police were searching for two or three other suspects, described as African-American men in their 20s.

The West LA crime
The suspect is described as a black man, 25 to 40 years old, about six feet tall and 200 pounds, wearing dark clothing, dark gloves and a ski mask.

That's just news media doublespeak for

"...While we are aware that all the targeted victims thus far have been elderly women, we are obliged to consider the rights of the alleged criminals to attack anyone else they desire in the immediate future.

Until the alleged bad guy/perp(s) are caught, convicted and have the ten year appeal process fulfilled, we must allow the alleged criminals the courtesy of choosing whomever they please as their next victim(s)."
