The Austin Police Department Child Abuse Unit is seeking the public’s assistance in locating a person of interest in a 2017 sexual assault of a child case. The incident began when a man, believed to be 39-year-old Terry McVade (pictured below), forced his way into a residence and sexually assaulted a teenage occupant.
