Police officials may have finally identified the stealth Rump Ripper, a man who has stabbed several women in the buttocks throughout northern Virginia this year.

According to NBC Washington, Fairfax County Police are searching for 40-year-old Johnny D. Guillen Pimentel, a suspect for the butt slashing. Since February, nine females have come forward and claimed to have been stabbed on the buttocks while shopping in Fairfax County. According to the news outlet, victims have all been ladies in their early twenties or late teens, and most attacks have begun with the slasher dropping clothes to distract his victims before pricking them with a box cutter or razor blade.

Detectives think that Pimentel, who owns a a blue Honda Civic with the Virginia tag KLX2689, might have already fled the area. The last reported butt-cutting incident took place on July 25 at a Fair Oaks Mall clothing store called Forever 21. The ripper has also slashed behinds at Greenbriar Shopping Center, the Fairfax Town Center and Tysons Corner Mall.
