Girl assaulted while inside mall bathroom stall

By WTOP Staff

STERLING, Va. (AP) — Police say a 16-year-old girl was assaulted while inside a bathroom stall at the Dulles Town Center shopping mall — the second such attack this month.

The Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office says the girl was in the stall on Friday morning when a man reached underneath a door and grabbed her. The girl screamed and the man fled.

On May 14, police say a 62-year-old woman was in a bathroom at the mall when a man touched her inappropriately from an adjacent stall before fleeing. There are similarities to the subject description in both incidents.
