Police released this composite sketch of the man suspected of trespassing in women's restrooms.

Campus Police continue to investigate last week's intrusions in the women's restrooms at Hanszen and Baker Colleges. The department has compiled a composite sketch of the suspect for campus-wide distribution.

"We've got a really good composite here," Sgt. Les Hulsey said. "It's very accurate."

Students who saw the intruder April 11 went to the Campus Police station, where police created the composite sketch using a computer program called Faces.

Hulsey said police are currently "going into a more detailed investigation of all suspicious persons."

Hulsey said they believe the intruder in the Baker and Hanszen incidents is the same person who was involved in three incidents of trespassing in a Will Rice College women's bathroom last semester. He said they have shown the composite to witnesses from all five incidents.

"They say it's the same guy," Hulsey said.

"Precautions have been taken [in the residential colleges]," Lt. Terry Ryals said. He said students should not hesitate to call the Campus Police if they see anybody out of the ordinary.
