Ridge Meadows RCMP are hoping a forensic sketch will help them find the suspect of a sexual assault that allegedly happened early last year.
Police say the incident was reported to them this past January, and involved a teenage girl.
According to RCMP, the girl alleged she was riding the bus from Port Coquitlam to Maple Ridge when she was sexually assaulted by a man.
A forensic sketch artist was brought in by police “after exhausting all other investigative avenues,” RCMP said in a statement Thursday.
The suspect is described as an African American male who’s young in age and tall in height.
