Pizza delivery woman upset no arrests have been made
|
The victim, Elisha Boles, 23, still bears a scar underneath her chin, inflicted by the blade of a mysterious attacker who slashed her throat as she was delivering a pizza to a residence on Old Viola Road. It was later discovered the residence was unoccupied and that her attacker must have called in the pizza order to lure the victim to the darkened area. However, still baffling police is the fact the slasher took no money, fleeing instead only with pizzas.
According to the victim, the man walked up to her without a word, pulled a knife and slashed her throat as she was delivering the pizza. Boles was able to run to a nearby residence for help. The wound required over 100 stitches and Boles said Thursday she has just now been cleared to return to the workforce. Her plans do not include pizza delivery, she noted.
“I’d like to see justice brought to him,” Boles said this week. “It’s been three months and he’s still running around out there. He could do the same thing to someone else.”
According to McMinnville Police Capt. Bryan Denton, there have been no reports of similar crimes since Boles was attacked this May.
While police have released a composite sketch of the slasher, created by Boles’ descriptions, Denton said police have pretty much exhausted all leads. Anyone with information concerning the Boles attack should contact investigator Marty Cantrell at 473-3386.
