The Essex County Sheriff's Office this week put out a $5,000 reward for information leading to the arrest of the suspect, who apparently beat and struck a woman employee to the point where her jaw and ribs were broken.
NJ.com reports:
On March 14, an unknown man entered the rectory at St. Joseph's asking for food, according to Maplewood Police. The man was being escorted to the second floor of the building by a female secretary when he threw the woman to the ground and stomped on her several times.
The suspect stole several items from the woman's purse and fled the church. The woman suffered several fractures, and now suffers from vision and mental disabilities, Fontoura said.
Fontoura described the attacker as a black male with a medium build, standing at roughly 5 feet and 8 inches. He was wearing a dark hooded sweatshirt with a zipper, dark pants and tan hiking boots on the day of the attack, according to Fontoura, who said the suspect also has close cropped hair, protruding teeth and a thin moustache.
