Suspect sought after woman groped in Burnaby park
Mounties in Burnaby are asking witnesses to come forward after a man allegedly sexually assaulted a woman in Central Park last weekend.
Police say they responded to a report from the victim around 9 p.m. Sunday.
'The victim was walking in the park when an unknown man ran up and inappropriately touched her buttocks and lower back area,' a Tuesday news release from the detachment reads. 'The woman, who suffered no physical injuries as a result, was able to get away and report the incident to police.'
Mounties describe the suspect, who ran away after the incident, as a 'possibly Caucasian' man between 20 and 30 years old with medium-length brown or blond curly hair. At the time, he was wearing dark clothes, including a long-sleeved shirt and baseball hat.
Police ask anyone with information to call the Burnaby RCMP at 604-646-9999.
