Calgary police have charged a 39-year-old man in connection to the sexual assault of a realtor at an open house earlier this year.
The assault happened while the victim was working at an open house in the 800 block of McKenzie Drive Southeast on Saturday, June 22.
The victim told police she had multiple interactions with a man who came to the open house, and was then sexually assaulted.
On Thursday, the Calgary Police Service said tips submitted anonymously through Crime Stoppers and CCTV footage from the area had helped them identify a suspect.
“Investigators believe this to be a random attack, as the victim and the suspect are not known to one another,” CPS said in a news release.
Parthasarthi Ramakrishnan of Calgary was charged with sexual assault on Oct. 29.
He is scheduled to appear in court on Wednesday, Nov. 27.
Anyone who has been the victim of a sexual assault can report it to Calgary police by calling their non-emergency number at 403-266-1234, or 911 if they’re in immediate danger.
In Canada, there is no time limit on how long a victim has to report a sexual assault.
