The woman’s mother also has contacted police regularly about the lack of progress in the case.

“I’m not asking the police to solve this crime in a month. I know it doesn’t work like that,” the mother said. “I’m just asking (Uber) to help identify one driver.”

As of Aug. 3, the mother said the company had yet to provide police with information as to whether any Uber driver had picked up a fare at that time, date and location.

“Clearly, the best witness is the driver,” the mother said. “And the crime scene is his car. How does it take that long to get that basic piece of information?”

Meanwhile, a discussion Friday on a private Facebook page for Uber drivers may shed more light on the incident. The discussion began after this article was first published on stltoday.com.

In an exchange about 2 p.m. Friday between Uber drivers, one person identified himself as a driver who experienced a similar incident on July 3 — one the driver says did not result in a likely sexual assault, thanks to his efforts.
