''A 46-year-old woman was rushed to hospital in life-threatening condition after a violent sexual assault in Hamilton early Monday morning.

Hamilton police were in the vicinity of Barton Street East near Victoria Avenue just before 3 a.m. when they were flagged down by a witness and alerted to the presence of a woman in nearby alleyway, who was suffering from serious injuries following an apparent assault.

Police say that investigators have since determined that the assault “contained a sexual component” and are therefore treating the incident as a sexual assault investigation.


Police have released surveillance camera images of a potential suspect, who they say fled the scene on foot.

He is described as a tall, young black male with short braided hair. He was last seen wearing a black and white track suite.''

They have a surprisingly good photo of the suspect (most photos taken security cam footage tend to be pretty grainy) so hopefully he will be identified and apprehended quickly.

''It will be a "long road to recovery" for the woman who was assaulted in an alleyway off Barton Street in Hamilton, according to the woman's mother.

Her mother spoke publicly for the first time at a vigil held for her daughter Friday evening in Hamilton, organized by Sex Workers' Action Program (SWAP) Hamilton. The neighbourhood was filled with people wearing red clothing in honour of the 46-year-old victim, who suffered a violent sexual assault in the early hours of June 27.

"I am the mother of a victim who was raped here in this alleyway, and beaten severely," said the mother, who has withheld her and her daughter's names out of concerns over safety and stigma.

She said her daughter had nine bones in her face broken, including her jaw and nose. She has suffered three "brain bleeds." The woman is awake, but she cannot walk, move her arms or speak more than a few words, the mother said.

Once she is able to leave the hospital, she will need to enter a rehabilitation centre to relearn how to walk.''

''Police told CBC Hamilton Monday that the man remained in custody, and that "immigration has put a hold on him." Police said he is a Nigerian citizen.

Vermillion told CBC Hamilton she was told the man charged has a wife and three-year-old son in Hamilton.

"This three-year-old child will be without a father… because stigma made him feel that it was acceptable to commit violence against a sex worker," Vermillion said.''
