Girl, 13, kicks attacker and runs home in Dania Beach

The Broward Sheriff's Office is warning about a possible rapist who attacked a 13-year-old girl on Tuesday night in Dania Beach.

The victim was returning home from a convenience store on the 3400 block of Griffin Road where she bought some candy around 10 p.m., according to the investigative report.

As she walked through an open field on the 3300 block of Griffin Road, a man grabbed her from behind and pulled her toward a nearby tree where he attempted to remove her pants, the report stated.

The girl was able to free herself by kicking the suspect and running away before her pants could be removed. She immediately told her parents about the attack and they contacted the Broward Sheriff's Office, according to the report.

The suspect was described as a man dressed in all black clothing and wearing a black ski mask. He stood about 5-feet-11 and had a stocky build.

The Broward Sheriff's Office asks anyone with information about this crime to contact Detective Eric Hendel, (954) 321-4240 or Broward Crime Stoppers, anonymously, at (954) 493- 8477, or http://www.browardcrimestoppers.org.

BSO Dania Beach District Office Has Moved | Broward Police Academy

Please be advised that the BSO Dania Beach district office has moved. The new location is 4601 SW 30th Ave., Dania Beach. The new headquarters is open from 9 AM – 5 PM Monday-Friday to assist the public with any law enforcement related matters. The telephone number remains the same, 954.926.2400. If you want to reach dispatch for non-emergency related issues, call 954.765.4321, and always dial 911 for emergencies.

The Broward Sheriff’s Office Dania Beach district has moved its headquarters from city hall to a new facility at 4601 S.W. 30th Avenue, Dania Beach. The new location, formerly Dania Beach Fire Station 93, has been remodeled to accommodate law enforcement operations.

Earlier this year, when Dania Beach Fire Rescue merged with Broward Sheriff Fire Rescue, the equipment and firefighters assigned to Station 93 relocated a short distance away to BSO Station 17. This made Station 93 available for the law enforcement operations formerly housed at city hall. The city hall facility was in dire need of extensive remodeling, but the cost was considered too great. Moving to Station 93 solved a problem and saved the City of Dania Beach a significant sum of money.

The new headquarters building is open to the public from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. There is a community service aide on duty during these hours to assist the public in filing police reports and other law enforcement-related matters. There are also deputies and detectives available to meet with citizens as needed.

If you live east of Interstate 95 and would like to meet with a community service aide or deputy sheriff, you may go to BSO’s community substation located at 803 N.W. 1st St. directly across from C. W. Thomas Park. This location is staffed seven days per week by a community service aide with the following enhanced hours:

The new facility houses the district’s Criminal Investigations Unit, Selective Enforcement Team, Crime Prevention Unit, administrative support personnel, and command staff. The community substation continues to house the district’s Patrol Division. The telephone number remains the same, 954-926-2400. If you want to reach dispatch for a non-emergency, call 954-765-4321, and all emergencies should be called in to 911.
