Kostroma Police Hunt for Tent Rapist

Police in the Kostroma region are searching for a man accused of raping women in forests throughout western Russia and recording the acts on video, according to the regional Ministry of Internal Affairs.
The man has allegedly made a series of videos throughout the Vladimir, Tver and Yaroslavl regions, in which he bound the women with ropes and chains in an effort to choke them into submission.
“He leads his victims for a long time through the woods, confusing the trail and searching for a quiet place. He then pitches a tent, where he assaults [his victim] sexually and films it on his cell phone,” read a statement released by the regional interior ministry.
The suspect is between 35 and 45 years old and about 5’7’” with a slim build and dark blond hair, according to the authorities. Police have warned local women to be cautious about walking in deserted places unaccompanied, especially at night.
