Another victim tied to serial rapist

The Marion County Sheriff's Office says another attack has been tied to the suspected serial rapist, now potentially linked to 5 sexual assaults over the past few months in Marion and Alachua Counties.  Detectives leading the investigation held a news conference this morning with more information on the latest attack and prior cases.  WUFT-FM's Bothaina Saleh says the Marion County Sheriff's Office, Ocala Police Department, Gainesville Police Department and Florida Department of Law Enforcement are teaming up for the investigation.
