   LEWIS CENTER, Ohio -   
      
   Authorities in Delaware County are seeking the public's help to   
   locate a suspect in the sexual assault of a male victim in a   
   Central Ohio park.   
      
   According to the Delaware County Sheriff's Office, the assault   
   occurred at Highbanks Metro Park in Lewis Center on Tuesday at   
   about 4:30 p.m.   
      
   "The park was fairly crowded during that time there were   
   numerous people out enjoying the park," said Delaware County   
   Sheriff's Office Captain Kevin Savage.   
      
   Investigators said the suspect encouraged an 18-year-old male   
   who was hiking to walk off the trail approximately 75 feet north   
   of the overlook deck area, where he pushed him to the ground and   
   sexually assaulted him.   
      
   "The suspect was trying to encourage the victim to go off that   
   trail with him. The victim became concerned by the tenor of that   
   conversation so he started going away from that suspect. That's   
   when the suspect knocked him over," Savage said.   
      
   A composite sketch of the suspect was released by the sheriff's   
   office Wednesday afternoon.   
      
   Investigators said the suspect is described as a middle-aged   
   male, 5 feet 11 inches tall, 170 pounds with salt-and-pepper   
   hair, and a goatee with graying hair.   
      
   The victim said the suspect has a slight accent, and is of   
   Indian descent.   
      
   He was wearing a white T-shirt with black vertical stripes, and   
   black running shorts at the time of the assault.   
      
   Investigators said the suspect appears to be familiar with the   
   park and its various trails.   
      
   Area resident Diane Hoisbaur says she has been running at   
   Highbanks Metro Park for more than a decade, but she could tell   
   something was different on Tuesday.   
      
   "I took note that it was eerily quiet on the trail. There   
   weren't a lot of people the normal people that I see weren't   
   there," said Hoisbaur.   
      
   She says the normal traffic was replaced by helicopters, park   
   rangers, and deputies.   
      
   "I came out of the clearing and saw all the vehicles there,"   
   said Hoisbauer. "I wasn't really sure what had happened.” She   
   also noticed a fellow runner, who also frequents the trail, was   
   very distressed.   
      
   "He was carrying a brown bag and it looked like he had a   
   different change of clothes…he went into the bathroom and came   
   out,” Hoisbauer said.   
      
   Anyone with information is asked to call the sheriff's office at   
   740-833-2800.
