Dallas police said they are searching for a man they believe may be linked to two sexual assaults during the past six months.
The most recent happened Feb. 8, when a woman entered her apartment and found a man inside. Police said he sexually assaulted the woman before stealing her debit card and leaving in her 2006 gray Lexus, which has not yet been recovered.
Police said the man was wearing a black, hooded sweatshirt, black pants, gloves and a mask.
Police released video of the man Friday using the victim’s stolen debit card about 30 minutes after the attack.
Tips led officers to identify the man as 27-year-old Samuel Jamall White. He goes by the name Jamall, police said.
During the course of the investigation, police determined White may be responsible for another sexual assault that happened Sept. 27, 2015 where a woman was attacked at DART's Walnut Hill Station at about 10:30 p.m.
"We believe the video from the February offense matches the video from the DART station attack in September," said Deputy Chief Rob Sherwin of the Crimes Against Persons Unit.

The latest news from around North Texas.
Police said it’s enough to charge White with two counts of aggravated sexual assault, a first-degree felony. He also faces a charge for burglary of a habitation, a second-degree felony, after police said he pawned property from a burglary on Dec. 16, 2015, in the 8000 block of Park Lane.
When asked if White could be connected to two separate attacks at two apartment complexes in Lake Highlands on Friday, police confirmed they have received video from a witness at one of the complexes that appears to show a man walking across a parking lot.
"We just got some video from a witness," Sherwin said. "That video appears to be someone that looks a lot like Jamall, but at this time I haven’t been able to talk to the victims yet and until I can talk to those victims. I can’t say for sure. But what I can say is I have two aggravated sexual assault warrants for this man and I believe that when we get him in custody, we’re going to have less sexual assaults and less attacks in this area."
