Woman sexually assaulted while cleaning men's room at Cal Poly Pomona

A woman said she was sexually assaulted inside a Cal Poly Pomona bathroom by what she described as a large, intimidating man.

About 12:45 p.m. Thursday, the victim walked into the men's restroom near the university's running track and Parking Lot K to clean it, according to a written statement from the school.

A man suddenly appeared inside the bathroom, forced the woman against a stall, exposed himself and asked for a "sexual favor," police said. When he heard a noise outside, the man ran away.

The man was described as black, about 40 years old, between 5-foot-10 and 6-feet tall, and about 350 pounds. He had short, black hair and he was missing an upper right tooth.

At the time of the assault, the man was wearing a black scoop neck tank-top that exposed three skull tattoos across his chest, blue jeans and white tennis shoes.

The woman also said her attacker appeared dirty, had bloodshot eyes and smelled of urine, according to the news release.
