A Murfreesboro woman told police that she was raped several days ago by an unknown culprit. The victim told officers that she was physically attacked while walking down Sevier Street. The woman was attacked outside of a small apartment complex. Although the police were not contacted until Sunday (7/14/13), the rape was said to have occurred on Friday (7/12/13).

Sevier Street is an area that has been plagued with crime over the years. WGNS has seen numerous reports of a variety of crime in the Sevier Street area over the past several years in Murfreesboro.
