Surrey RCMP is requesting help from the public to identify the suspect in a sexual assault which occurred in Newton earlier this month.

At approximately 9:00 pm, on July 16, 2019, a woman was gardening in her front yard in the 6100 block of 138 Street when an unknown man in a white Jaguar sedan pulled into her driveway and approached her to ask for directions.

After speaking briefly, the man groped the woman before getting back into his car and driving away.
