FALLS COUNTY (October 14, 2009)—The Falls County Sheriff’s Office was investigating Wednesday after an 80-year-old woman was sexually assaulted by a man who forced his way into in her home outside of Marlin.

The attack happened Saturday, the sheriff’s office said Wednesday.

The attacker took several items from the home on Highway 7 East after the sexual assault, the sheriff’s office said.

The victim was taken to the hospital by private vehicle.

The Bell County Sheriff's Office is investigating several similar attacks.

The lead investigator told News 10 it’s too early to tell if this latest attack is connected, but said the possibility will be investigated.

Praying for the peace of these precious women to be restored to them. Meanwhile, many elderly women need to purchase or have their family give them guns for such an occasion as this. That should stop him.. We have elderly women in our family with guns and believe me they can shoot..
