When Oscar Cota heard there was a predator roaming his neighborhood's streets and attacking young girls, he knew he had to do something about it.

Oscar, who owns a T-shirt shop in Phoenix, knew exactly what had to be done. 

He designed a T-shirt that would let everyone who lives and works in the area know who police were trying to find.

The shirts have the composite sketch of the predator printed on the front and the back.  They also have information about the case written in not only English, but Spanish.

Oscar knew that by getting the word out about the case as much as possible, somebody might be able to help police make an arrest.

So far Oscar has printed and distributed more than 200 shirts.  On Monday he hopes to get another 400 printed so he can hand those out as well.

So how long will he continue to do this?  He says as long as he has the resources and as long as this predator remains on the street.
