NEW CASTLE, Del. - May 14, 2010 The 24-year-old male victim was recently released from the hospital and was able to assist an artist with the completion of a composite sketch.

The suspect is described as a medium toned black male who had a tattoo on the left side of his neck of an unknown name in cursive writing. He is believed to be about 20 years of age, weighs approximately 150 pounds, 5'6", and has very short cropped hair.

The incident began at 10:44 a.m. last Saturday when County Police and Paramedics responded to a home in the 500 block of Homestead Road in the Alban Park community for a report of a carjacking that just occurred.

When emergency personnel arrived, they located the victim bleeding from a severe injury to his head. He was able to tell the officers he was outside washing his car when he was approached by two young men who engaged him in conversation.
