The woman said she was forced into a car, where the attacker ripped her clothes off and used a blow torch to burn her face.

The victim told police she managed to get away and call for help after stabbing the man in the eye with a screwdriver. She is now hospitalized and in stable condition.

The suspect is described as a black male with a dark complexion, about 6’2” tall and 185 pounds, in his early to mid-20s.

This is my first time submitting an article like this.. I searched for the threads about the other women found in Detroit to potentially merge this to, but couldn't find them for some reason. Let me know if I should delete/merge somehow!

Horror! Prayers for the victims. I hope his injuries get him caught this time.

You would think if he was stabbed in the eye that he would seek medical attention somewhere.
