The attack happened on a jogging trail at Creekwood Park on S. Panther Creek around 8:30pm Tuesday. The Montgomery County Sheriff's Office says a man engaged the victim in conversation. When she wanted to end it, he pulled her down by her hair and assaulted her. She managed to fight back and get away to call for help.
