Community searches for serial rapist

HOUSTON (KTRK) -- A serial rapist is on the loose in southwest Houston. Now community leaders are teaming up to get the man off the street.

Police say three of the man's four victims were attacked at the Summerstone apartments on Dairy View near Bissonnet. Volunteers went to the complex Sunday afternoon to pass out flyers with sketches of the man and warn neighbors.

One woman, who did not want to be identified, told us she carries a gun, and she's not afraid to use it.

"If he ever comes by me, I promise you I won't see him in the courtroom," she said. "I will not look over at that table and see him grinning at me. I'll look at his family, and I'll say, 'You should have taught him better that what you have.'"

Crime Stoppers is offering a $5,000 reward for information leading to an arrest. Their number is 713-222-TIPS.
