Do you recognize this man?
Surrey RCMP is hoping a member of the public will, and has released the composite sketches in the hopes of tracking down a suspect in a sex assault alleged to have taken place in Newton earlier this month.
According to police, it happened around 9:30 p.m. on March 13, on 124th Street near 72nd Avenue.
Mounties say the suspect grabbed and groped a woman as she walked northbound on 124th Street. She was able to break free, but police say the suspect then followed her to her front door and tried to assault her again.
The woman was able to get into her home without being assaulted again, and the man was last seen heading southbound on 124th Street.
Police describe the man as five-foot-10 with a skinny build and a short black beard. He was wearing a black baseball cap and a long black jacket with a cream-coloured shirt.
The Surrey RCMP’s Special Victims Unit is leading the investigation, and police are appealing for anyone who recognizes the sketches or who witnessed the incident to come forward.
Anyone with dash cam video shot in the area around the time of the alleged assault is also asked to contact police.
