CUTLER BAY, Fla. (WSVN) -- Police have released a sketch of a rapist who broke into a room and attacked a woman.

Police said the man depicted in the sketch knocked on the door of a residence at Southwest 195th Street and 97th Avenue, at around 10 a.m. Friday. When the 36-year-old victim opened the door, the subject forced himself inside and sexually assaulted her.

Police describe him as a white, Hispanic male in his 40s with dark color eyes, medium complexion, black hair that's balding in the front and light beard stubble. They said he stands 5 feet 5 inches to 5 feet 7 inches tall with an average build. He was last seen wearing a blue shirt with dark pants.

Residents are very concern and want the man in jail. "Wow, that is something that I would like everyone to know about," said a woman.

If you have any information as to the identity of this man, call Miami-Dade Crime Stoppers at 305-471-TIPS. Remember, you can always remain anonymous, and you may be eligible for a reward.
