STAFFORD COUNTY, Va. -- The Stafford County Sheriff’s Office shared a photo of the shirt the man who sexually assaulted a woman in a ditch left behind after the attack.

The two-hour attack happened Monday morning between 2:45 to 3:15, according to investigators.

It started when the man hit the woman's car and forced her off the road on Kings Highway (Route 3) in Stafford.

"After the accident, the unknown male suspect forcibly removed the victim from her vehicle and dragged her into a ditch off the roadway where he sexually assaulted her over a two hour period," a Stafford County Sheriff’s spokesperson said.

Once the suspect drove away, the victim made it back to her vehicle and called 911. A deputy arrived at the scene just as she was calling for help.
