On January 8, 2013, at about 1:30 pm, Clackamas County Sheriff's Office deputies responded to a home near the Beavercreek Post Office after a woman called 911 to report someone had broken into her home and attacked her.
The victim reported being hit on the head and needing medical assistance.
Multiple deputies went to the area, including a K9 deputy, and searched for the suspect but were unable to locate him.
After receiving initial medical treatment for her injuries from Clackamas Fire District #1 personnel, the victim was transported to an area hospital for further assessment.
Later in the evening, the victim was able to work with Sheriff's Office detectives and a Sheriff's Office forensic sketch artist to provide a suspect description.

Nothing was stolen during the attack.
