A worker leaving a North Bend business Sunday night was forced back inside by a man who stabbed her, bound her wrists and feet with duct tape and sexually assaulted her.

Snoqualmie police say the incident occurred shortly after 11 p.m. Sunday in the 400 block of Mt. Si Boulevard in North Bend.

The woman was reportedly the last employee leaving the business when a man forced her back inside. The suspect is described as an unknown Hispanic male.

The female victim was stabbed one time in the chest, bound with duct tape on her feet and wrists and sexually assaulted, police say.
