LINDENWOLD, N.J. (WTXF) - Police in Lindenwold, New Jersey seek information regarding a man suspected of sexually assaulting a woman at a party.

Aanahi Jacinto was at a Christmas Eve party where she says her friend was sexually assaulted the next morning as the victim slept on her couch at her Arborwood condo in Lindenwold.

"It happened out of nowhere, so it's shocking because it was family and friends," Jacinto said.

Lindenwold police posted a picture of the woman's alleged attacker on their Facebook page asking anyone with information to please come forward.

"We left but I know the story because i was with her at the hospital," Jacinto explained.

Jacinto says about 15 people were enjoying some holiday cheer when the man claiming to know the victim's boyfriend from back home in Honduras crashed the party.

"Nobody knows who he is. They're saying he changes his name, so we don't know who he is," she said.

Anyone with information regarding the man is asked to contact Lindenwold Police at 856-784-7566, extension 421. Tips can be left at the Lindenwold Police Department website.
