In the past week the New Westminster Police Department received three reports of a man committing indecent acts in the Connaught Heights and West End neighbourhoods.

In all instances, occupants in the home saw the man through their basement window. The suspect was allegedly masturbating. Police with the assistance of a K9 team searched the area, however they couldn’t find anyone matching the suspect description.

Officers are still investigating these incidents. If you have any information or recognize the man in the photo below please contact the New Westminster Police Department Street Crime Unit at 604-525-5411.
