Woman groped in Falls Church

Published October 24, 2012 4:00am ET



A woman in her 40s was groped in Falls Church on Friday, and police believe the attack may be related to similar incidents that have taken place in Fairfax County.

About 4:20 p.m. Friday, the victim was walking with a baby stroller in the area of South Maple Avenue and Gibson Street when the suspect approached from behind and groped her. The attacker didn’t let go of the woman until she screamed, Falls Church officials said. The baby in the stroller was not hurt.
