According to the victim, the suspect is a black male with a height of approximately5'8-5'9 and weighs approximately 170 pounds. The suspect has facial hair, a mole on his face and was wearing a T-shirt and shorts.

To facilitate visitor access, many dormitories on campus did not require a University ID card for entry during Reunions weekend. It is unclear whether Spelman Hall required PUID access during this time.
