Here's another article on this story. It says the hispanic man is the one with the gun that stopped the attack and won't release info on the perp. The cops can't find either.

Vacaville Police Search For Sexual Assault Suspect

(CBS13) VACAVILLE, Calif. Police are looking for the man who tried to rape a Vacaville woman Wednesday night, and the male suspect who helped rescue the woman from harm.

Police say the woman was in a public Laundromat on Gable Avenue when a man began talking to her. Later when she refused his advances, officers say he pushed the woman against a laundry table and tried raping her.

Another male came into the Laundromat with a handgun and confronted the suspect and ordered him to leave the woman alone. The suspect then grabbed the victim and led her out of the laundry room.

The two men ended up in a physical fight behind the laundry room, it is unknown if they both knew each other.

The armed man is described as a Hispanic male is his early 20's, wearing a baseball cap, black jacket, and red shirt. A description of the sexual assault suspect has not been provided.

Police note that this suspect is not the Vacaville serial rapist.

If you have any information on the suspects whereabouts you are asked to contact Detective Bob Horel at (707) 469-6630.

Thanks for finding this. I don't have the article in front of me so I may have misremembered who was whom... but I suspect that the guy who stopped the rape attempt may have been carrying "illegally" which would explain his reluctance to come forward... Pity we yet have to put up with these barbaric laws!

Ain't it interesting that the cops are more concerned with getting the guy who STOPPED the rape than they are of getting the pervert.
