Serial rapist still free in Manhattan
9:31 p.m. Sunday, September 2, 2007
Manhattan — Manhattan Police are looking for a serial rapist they say is responsible for at least seven attacks of college-age women.
The rapes have occurred over the past seven years near the Kansas State University campus, with the most recent attack taking place last month. Police say the man conceals his identity by wearing long-sleeve shirts, gloves and a mask.
Investigators believe the first rape occurred in August 2001. They didn't suspect a link until the fourth incident, around 2004.
Authorities are reminding female students to never walk alone, and K-State provides an escort service called Wildcat Walk. Police also say it's a good idea to keep apartment doors and windows locked.
