Around 10:40 p.m., officers responded to a call reporting a sexual assault in the Howard Park Avenue and Parkside Drive area of the park, police said in a public safety alert Thursday. A woman had been walking on a paved pathway when a male suspect approached her from behind, dragged her into a wooded area of the park and sexually assaulted her, police said.
