Police searching for additional victims of Abilene sexual assault suspect

ABILENE, Texas (KTAB/KRBC) – Police are searching for additional victims of an Abilene sexual assault suspect.

Valente Erik Cano, 23, was indicted for Sexual Assault Thursday in connection to an incident that took place in July 2024, and during the investigation into this case, officers learned he may have assaulted other victims in Abilene’s transient community.

Police are now asking these victims to come forward, saying “we understand that reporting sexual assault can be difficult, and we want to assure all potential victims that they will be treated with respect, sensitivity, and confidentiality.”

Anyone with information on other victims Cano may have assaulted is asked to contact Crimes Against Persons at (325)704-3221 or Abilene Crime Stoppers at (325)676-8477.

Cano’s initial arrest stems from allegations that he sexually assaulted a woman while they were drinking in the parking lot of an Abilene church.
