Suspect in Woman’s Rape Sought by Police
Police and a bloodhound searched unsuccessfully Wednesday for the man suspected of grabbing a 50-year-old woman at a bus stop and raping her in an alley.

The victim grabbed her attacker’s wallet, police said, and on Wednesday charges were filed against the suspect.
Navaro is described as 5 feet 5 and 140 pounds, wearing a gray, long-sleeved sweatshirt and three-quarter-length Hawaiian shorts.
