Harrisburg — Harrisburg police are searching for a man who reportedly attacked a 58-year-old woman on Thursday in Reservoir Park.

The woman explained she was driving home at 2:45 p.m. when she was approached by the man walking along the road. He jumped in front of her, shouting expletives and telling her to slow down. He then reached into her car in an attempt to grab her and she swerved away. He proceeded to grab her antenna and pound on her trunk.

She stopped at the Honorable Eugenia Smith Family Life Center to call for help and told the man police were on the way. The man charged at her and shouted while trying to grab her again. The woman slammed his arm in the door and waited for officers.

Police classified the incident in Reservoir Park as harassment and the suspect is believed to be in his 30s.

Anyone with information should call Harrisburg police at 717-255-6531.
