Burnaby RCMP are asking for the public’s help to identify a man accused of an indecent act earlier this month.
In a media release, police said the incident happened around 1:30 p.mm. on Friday, Sept. 8, in a coffee shop near Metrotown.
Mounties said the victim called police immediately, but the man was gone by the time RCMP arrived.
“This incident occurred in a very public place, which is troubling and traumatic to everyone involved,” Burnaby RCMP Cpl. Mike Kalanj said.
