"If you live within a few blocks of the intersection of West Wilson Street and Bedford Street, and you have video, which captures the time between 2 a.m. and 4 a.m., even if you think there's nothing on it, it can be very important to detectives," said Madison Police Department Assistant Chief Paige Valenta.Valenta said she wants the victim and her family to know police will do whatever they can to identify the person or people who attacked her.
Madison police said they're increasing patrols in the area where the attack happened, and they're encouraging people not to walk alone, particularly at night.Copyright © 2023 WLS-TV. All Rights Reserved.
