Westport Police on lookout for alleged assault suspect

The Westport Police Department is investigating an alleged assault of a 34-year-old woman in Westport’s marina area last Wednesday.

According to the victim, Abra Mcmullin, she was riding her bicycle toward home on the corner of Patterson and Montesano streets just after midnight Dec. 27, when an unknown male pulled up along side of her in a white vehicle and attempted to force her into it.

Mcmullen described the suspect as a younger male with dark skin, according to Westport Police Chief Tracy Rosenow in an email. In a Facebook post that went viral, Mcmullen said the man kicked her repeatedly, leading to stitches in her face, head and knee, among other injuries.

“I remember seeing a flash of the car and the guy above me trying to drag me, I just kicked my feet and then he stood above me and kicked me over and over,” said Mcmullen, who added she doesn’t remember anything after that, including the ambulance ride.

Rosenow said the department is actively investigating the case, but has very little suspect information. He asked anyone with information regarding the incident to contact the department at 360-268-9197.
