Toronto police have released fresh images following an alleged “random” attack on a woman at Toronto’s Kipling Subway Station.
Police said officers responded to an assault at the station, which is located in the Dundas Street and Kipling Avenue area, around 11:15 a.m. on Thursday.
A man assaulted an 85-year-old woman and the victim was taken to hospital to be treated for her injuries, police said.
Both police and the TTC said the incident was “random.”
A police spokesperson said the woman was punched in the face.
Officers said they are trying to identify a person allegedly involved with the incident who is described as a six-foot-tall man who wore dark clothing.
Police released two new images Saturday morning, and two other images Friday.
Kipling Station is the same location where last month a woman was lit on fire aboard a TTC bus in what police called a “suspected hate-motivated offence.”
