SAVANNAH, Ga. (WTOC) - The victim from Wednesday’s brutal acid attack is suffering from third-degree burns and will have a lengthy recovery process ahead of her.

A friend of the victim told WTOC, that she likely won’t see hair grow back on that part of her scalp-- but is lucky to be alive.

Ashley Wasielewski was on her daily walk when a stranger threw acid on the right side of her body before running away, according to the Savannah Police Department. Police say they believe the attack was random and still do not have a suspect.
