London Police Service

The London Police Service is continuing to investigate after receiving more reports of incidents involving women who were touched inappropriately by a man in the northwest end of the city.

After sharing the original images of the suspect, police say two more incidents have been reported.

The initial incident occurred on July 25, in which a woman said she was walking on the south side of Gainsborough Road near Limberlost Road when an elderly man approached her.

The woman says she was concerned the man might have been confused, so she attempted to assist him. That’s when she says the man grabbed her by the wrists, said something in an unknown language, and touched her inappropriately.

The man walked with a limp and a cane. At the time, he was wearing brown pants and a light-coloured, shorted-sleeved collared shirt.
