Wilson County Sheriff's Department officials are tight-lipped as their investigation continues into a vicious attack on an 18 year-old Wilson County woman earlier this week.

The WCSD has a suspect in mind in connection with the incident.

"We have a person of interest but we really can't release any more information at this time," said Detective Ricky Knight.

The victim, who was found on the front porch of a home in the northeastern part of Wilson County Monday night, sustained severe head injuries and was transported to Nashville's Vanderbilt University Medical Center -- according to Knight.
