Police in London, Ont., have re-arrested a man less than two weeks after they issued a public safety warning stemming from harassment of multiple women.

On Saturday, just after 10 a.m. police say a 28-year-old woman in the area of Adelaide Street South and Commissioners Road East was assaulted by a male suspect.

The suspect reportedly watched her for a period of time, then dashed across the roadway and grabbed her.

The victim was able to free herself and run into a nearby business to call police.

The suspect remained outside the business and continued to watch the victim, police said.

Saranjeet Singh, 22, was arrested Saturday for assault, criminal harassment, and failing to comply with a release order.
