PRINCE WILLIAM COUNTY, Va. - Police in Northern Virginia are investigating an alleged attempted sexual assault that took place during a concert at Jiffy Lube Live earlier this week. The incident was reported by a 20-year-old woman who said she was approached by an unknown man who implied he had a weapon and then led her to a secluded area before the alleged assault occurred.
What we know:
The incident reportedly happened on September 16 between 8 p.m. and 11 p.m. at Jiffy Lube Live, located in Bristow.
According to police, the 20-year-old victim was attending a concert with friends when she was separated from the group and approached by an unknown man. Police say the man implied he had a knife and ordered the victim to a secluded area, where she then consumed an unknown liquid.

He was last seen wearing a gray hooded sweatshirt and "skinny" style jeans. Police are currently reviewing surveillance video from the venue.
"We're hoping that we can get this guy identified," Jonathan Perok of the Prince William County Police Department said. "Whether he comes forward on his own or if we're able to get images out of the public. We're hoping to get him identified so we can get him in for an interview."
