Police are asking for the public’s help to find additional victims of a convicted sex offender who was arrested this week after authorities say he attempted to rape a woman inside a business in downtown Los Angeles.
Los Angeles police said Joseph Lee Davis, 30, entered a business near 8th and Main streets about 5 p.m. Sunday looking for items to steal, but encountered a woman instead.
On Jan. 27, around 3:45 p.m., Joseph Lee Davis was arrested in the area of 6th Street and San Julian Street.
Kelly Muniz said officers have already spoken with a second person who said Davis attempted to sexually assault them.
He was also required to register as a sex offender, but investigators determined that Davis had failed to comply with registration requirements.
