San Diego Police Search for Suspect Impersonating Rideshare Driver to Carry Out Sexual Assault

San Diego police are seeking assistance from the community to identify a man accused of impersonating a rideshare driver and allegedly sexually assaulting a woman who entered his car.

According to the San Diego Police Department, around 1:10 a.m. on March 15, a woman in the Pacific Beach vicinity entered the backseat of a vehicle she mistakenly believed was the rideshare she had ordered.
