policedoor700pxPrince William County Police are searching for a man who entered the hotel rooms of two sleeping Korean female students and touched them inappropriately.

According to police, the two incidents occurred Oct. 5 and 6 at the Wyndham Garden Hotel located at 10800 Vandor Lane in Manassas.

A 15-year-old female told staff members on the trip from from her school that she was sleeping in her room when she woke around 5 a.m. to an unknown man touching her.

"When the victim woke up, the man fled the room," police spokesman Sgt. Jonathan Perok said. "The victim was unable to describe the man to investigators due to the room being dark at the time"

However, the previous day, a similar incident occurred around 6:15 a.m. to a 16-year-old female on the same school trip from Seoul, Korea.

"In that incident, an unknown man also reportedly touched the victim before fleeing the room when she woke," Perok said.

The victim described the suspect as a white male with a medium build and bald head.

School staff did not report this incident to police until the second incident occurred.

Both girls were uninjured.

Detectives from the Special Victims Unit searched the entire hotel and did not locate the suspect.

"There were no signs of forced entry into either room," Perok said.

The police continue to investigate both incidents.
