LOS ANGELES – The Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors on Tuesday unanimously approved a $10,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and/or conviction of the man suspected of sexually assaulting a 10-year-old girl in a Palmdale Denny’s bathroom.

The alleged assault took place around 4:30 p.m., January 1, at the Denny’s restaurant in the 37000 block of 47th Street East in Palmdale.

According to sheriff’s detectives, a man entered the women’s restroom and attacked and sexually assaulted a 10-year-old girl as she exited one of the stalls. The attacker fled when another person entered the restroom, detectives said.

The suspect is believed to be a local panhandler known as “Shrink,” who was captured on surveillance cameras from the restaurant. He is described as white, probably 18 to 20 years old, 5 feet and 8 inches tall, weighing approximately 150 pounds and with blonde hair.

At the time of the incident, the suspect was wearing an orange shirt and dark colored shorts.

Anyone with information on this incident is urged to contact Detective Eliott Uribe at 877-710-5273.

    Hopefully the reason he has not been ‘caught’ yet is because someone found him and decided to utilize the desert with some manure.

    From the comments on FB, it seems that many people have reported seeing this guy? Is he still wanted? People making reports are saying that the LASD are NOT responding to their calls. Did the witness and victim change their stories or something? Why hasn’t he been caught?
