GOLDENDALE -- The Klickitat County Sheriff's Office is looking for assistance in identifying a suspect in an attempted rape that happened in late summer.

The female victim was working in an orchard in the Alderdale area, near the Columbia River in the eastern part of the county, when two men attacked her Aug. 24, according to a news release issued Tuesday. They tried to sexually assault her, but she fought them off and the men fled, the release said.

Both suspects are described as Hispanic males in their mid-20s, and they were seen in a small black import car.

Anyone with information is asked to contact Deputy Randy Wells at 509-773-4545 or randyw@co.klickitat.wa.us.
