Surrey RCMP Looking For Groper In Guildford

Darpan News Desk, 22 Nov, 2017 01:45 PM
    Surrey RCMP is warning the public of a sexual assault and asking for the public’s assistance in identifying a suspect after an incident occurred yesterday in the Guildford area of Surrey.
     
    On November 20th at 8:05 pm, Surrey RCMP was called to the 10200 block of 148th Street after a woman reported she was knocked to the ground and groped by an unknown man. The suspect had followed the victim after she got off a bus at 104th Avenue and 148th Street just prior to assaulting her. The victim’s screams caught the attention of nearby residents who scared off the assailant before police arrived. Thankfully the victim was not physically harmed.
     
    The suspect is described as a Caucasian male, approximately 35 years of age, with a medium build, and wearing a black hoodie with the hood up.
     
    Surrey RCMP Special Victim’s Unit is leading this investigation. Officers are canvassing the route walked by the victim in an effort to locate other potential witnesses and surveillance video.
     
    Incidents like these are thoroughly investigated on a priority basis, says Corporal Scotty Schumann. If you saw or heard anything to do with this incident, investigators would like to speak with you immediately.
     
    To reduce the likelihood of being victimized, pedestrians are encouraged to walk with confidence and be aware of their surroundings. Stay visible, stick to well-lit areas, and don’t wear dark clothing at night.
     
    Anyone with more information is asked to contact the Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502
