The attacker grabbed her arm and struck her in the face but he fled when the jogger fought back, township police said. He was last seen running toward Upper State Road.
A police dog team scouted the scene but turned up no sign of the assailant, according to the department.
He's described as a white man around 20 years old with a thin build, standing about 6 feet tall. He was wearing a black hoodie with the hood pulled closely around his face, investigators noted.
