Sketch Released of Athens Rape Suspect

ATHENS, Ga. - Athens-Clarke police have released a sketch of a man suspected of raping a University of Georgia student last weekend.

Police say the person in the sketch picked-up the victim late Saturday after UGA's season-opening football game.

The 18-year old victim says the cabbie sexually assaulted her, then dropped her off on a downtown street.

Investigators are trying to determine if the alleged attack is linked to an unsolved attempted rape that happened in that area last year.
