SUSPECT SEARCH: Up to 50 South Florida women victims of ‘Serial Creeper’

Published:   Updated: 

MIAMI BEACH, Fla. – Authorities in South Florida are searching for a man they call the “Serial Creeper” who is suspected of terrorizing up to 50 women by slipping into their homes and standing over them as they sleep.
Police have used DNA and victim testimony to create a computer-based composite image of the masked suspect. They’re circulating flyers to warn women about the suspect and with the hope someone will recognize him.
Police say the man has been targeting his victims. “This is a concentrated stalking type of pattern where he is targeting individuals,” said Coral Gables Police Chief Edward Hudak.
The "Serial Creeper" seeks out women, sneaking into their first floor apartments in the middle of the night. It’s happened in Coral Gables, Miami and possibly in Miami Beach.
On August 18th, woman woke up at 5:30 in the morning with a man in her bed. Police reports say he started to perform oral sex on her against her will.
The man spoke Spanish and told the woman he wasn’t going to hurt her. He said he was from Cuba and he also refereed to her by her first name.
Police are trying to determine if the case is connected and they’re going through all similar cases from the past.
“As of this moment we have not linked any, but we are still looking back at those cases,” said Miami Beach Police Deputy Chief Lauretta Hill.
