Additional victims sought after arrest in Culver City Metro Station sex assault

Authorities are seeking additional victims following the arrest of a 27-year-old man in a sexual assault at the Culver City Metro Station.

The suspect, identified by the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department as Roderick Moore, was arrested Sunday in the attack on a woman at the station. He was charged with two felony counts of sexual assault and held on $210,000 bond.

The attack was reported at about 4 a.m. Sunday. The woman was waiting on a Metro platform when she was assaulted. She boarded the train, but Moore is accused of following her on board, authorities said.

Los Angeles County Supervisor Janice Hahn said the woman used the train's emergency call function. The operator found the woman and the attacker, then called law enforcement.

"Based on the nature of the allegations, detectives believe there may be additional unidentified victims," the sheriff's department said in a statement. "Detectives are seeking the public’s help in identifying any such victims."

The agency provided a photo of the suspect. Jail records indicated an initial court appearance was scheduled for Thursday.
