Mpls police issue alert after 3 attempted assaults
Minneapolis police have issued a crime alert after three attempted sexual assaults over two days.
Police say the incidents happened last Friday and Saturday to women who were walking or jogging alone.
In the first two cases, the women were able to fight off their attacker. In the third case, a woman was jogging when the suspect approached her from behind and grabbed her around the mouth. When a car drove by, the suspect ran away.
