As the search continues for a sexual predator who has targeted lone women in Jefferson County parks, the sheriff's office shared limited new information on the case this week.

The Jefferson County Sheriff's Office reported on the at-large suspect on July 26. At the time, JCSO said the suspect was targeting solo female hikers in the Evergreen and Conifer area. The office had received multiple reports of a man confronting women at Flying J Ranch Park and Alderfer/Three Sisters Park.

We reached out to the JCSO on Monday requesting an update and was told:"We do not have any new information. But our investigators are working all possible leads. So we are still advising people to call us and let us know if they spot him." We reached out again Friday morning to ask if JCSO had a plan for the weekend regarding this case — as the weather will be ideal for hiking in the local parks — but have not heard back as of publishing time.

Over the past weekend and this week, online reports were flying around about possible incidents involving the suspect at Maxwell Falls and Elk Meadow Park, both in Evergreen. The JCSO has described the suspect as a white man between the ages of 20 and 30 with an athletic build. He has dark hair and was sometimes carrying a dark backpack. No photos or sketches of him are available.
