Angry mob + Pueblo + sex attacker

Angry mob + Pueblo + sex attacker, Angry Mob Pueblo Sex Attacker, Residents angry that Pueblo police had not warned them about sex assaults took matters into their own hands, chasing down a man they thought was the attacker, pelting him with rocks and leaving him with a bloody face.

Pueblo police later released the man because of lack of evidence.

Alex Pacheco, one of the pursuers, says neighborhood residents were looking for a man on Sunday suspected of two separate sexual acts involving children when they got word that a man matching the description had been spotted.

Residents confronted the man and he ran.

The Pueblo Chieftain reported that a half dozen people held the man until police arrived and took him away in a police car.
