HOUSTON WOMAN CLAIMS MAN EJACULATED ON HER IN RIVER OAKS DOLLAR TREE

DOLLAR TREE SEXUAL ASSAULT: HOUSTON WOMAN CLAIMS SHE WAS ASSAULTED

FOX 26 Reporter Sherman Desselle spoke with the woman and her attorney about the
details, which are graphic in nature.

HOUSTON - A Houston woman has filed suit against Dollar Tree after she claims
she was sexually assaulted at the company’s River Oaks location last December. 

Attorney Anna Greenberg at Blizzard Greenberg Law is suing Dollar Tree and
Fidelis Realty Partners, operators of the plaza, for negligence after the
shopper was followed and harassed by a male customer. According to the suit, the
female customer claimed the man ejaculated on her in the store.

The woman, who spoke with FOX 26 anonymously, says on Dec 5 around 10 a.m., she
was standing on one of the aisles at the West Gray location when the man
approached her from behind and started whispering in her ear. 



"He started saying all the things he wanted to do to me," said the woman. "It
was really bad. I couldn't believe this was happening. I panicked and told him
he was disgusting, and I immediately went to get my friend on the other aisle." 

As she and her friend stood in line at the register to purchase their items, the
woman said the man moved towards the front of the store making facial
expressions at her, and eventually left on a bicycle. The woman described him as
a Black male wearing a blue jacket, beanie, and a backpack.

After stepping outside, she says she felt a cold substance on her back. 

"When my friend looked at my clothes, she just panicked," she said. The woman
eventually walked back into the store to report the incident after going home to
shower and change her clothes.

"I said to the manager, I just got sexually assaulted in the store. She turns
around, and she yells in Spanish, "oh, another one...you're the third case in
less than four days." 

FOX 26 Houston is now on the FOX LOCAL app available through Apple TV, Amazon
FireTV, Roku, Google Android TV, and Vizio!

The women also kept the evidence and reported it to the Houston Police
Department. She alleges requests to Dollar Tree for store video surveillance
have been denied. 

Attorneys claim Dollar Tree creates a dangerous condition by understaffing its
stores, which contributes to their longstanding history of theft, robbery, and
other issues with violent crimes. 

Since the assault, the woman has reported nightmares and high levels of stress
and anxiety. She says she is especially fearful around men and finds it
difficult to shop anywhere without constantly looking over her shoulder. 

No arrests have been made in the case. FOX 26 reached out to Dollar Tree's
corporate office as well as Fidelis Realty Partners on Monday and waiting to
hear back. 

On May 14, a man was arrested for a similar incident involving a woman inside a
Whole Foods in Atlanta, Georgia. Fox 5 reports he was arrested in Gwinnett
County and charged with sexual battery and public indecency.
