LastDecember, a Georgia woman sustained severe burns to her face, neck, and scalp after a stranger emerged from the bushes at a Forsyth park and doused her in acid.
According to law enforcement, a black male approached the victim, Ashley Wasielewski, while she was walking around Forsyth Park and hurled acid at her.
The suspect, who is still at large, approached the victim from behind and poured the liquid chemical on her.
Wasielewski suffered third-degree burns and received treatment at Memorial Hospital in Augusta.
According topolice, the attacker was not known to the victim.
“I walk around this park a lot, even at night,” Wasielewski toldWJCL. “You just don’t expect something like this to happen here.”
Police previously released a photo of the attacker and asked the public for help.
Anyone with information should call CrimeStoppers, 912-234-2020, or submit an anonymous tip through the SPD mobile app.
Savannah Mayor Van Johnson, a black man, has repeatedly suggested Wasielewski knew her attacker and called it a “personal thing.”
The statements from Mayor Johnson rightfully angered Wasielewski and her family.
