SURREY (NEWS 1130) — Surrey Mounties are calling on witnesses of a sexual assault late last month at Bear Creek Park to help them find the person responsible.
On Monday, Sept. 27, just before 5 p.m., a woman was walking in Bear Creek Park when she was grabbed from behind by a stranger.
The victim was able to escape without any physical injuries, but police point out. The suspect got away.
While the woman was able to escape uninjured, a release from police adds, “incidents like these can have a profound and long-lasting impact on victims.”
Mounties say investigators and the victim are working with an artist so they can share a forensic sketch of the suspect.
The suspect is described as a man in his 20s with a medium build, a darker complexion, and black curly hair past his ears. He’s about 5’10″ tall. He was wearing a grey hoodie with baggy pants.
