Overview
- Investigators released a surveillance image Thursday night showing a person in a dark hoodie near West Waldburg and Whitaker streets at the time of the assault.
- Police say a man approached from behind just before 8 p.m. Wednesday and poured an unknown chemical on Ashley Wasielewski, who did not know her attacker.
- Authorities report no arrests and urge anyone who recognizes the individual in the image to contact Savannah police.
- A nearby neighbor told WJCL the victim’s clothing was partially melted and her keys appeared damaged, consistent with exposure to a corrosive liquid.
- Friends say Wasielewski hopes sharing her story will help identify the perpetrator, while parkgoers describe heightened concern for safety around Forsyth Park.
