A teenage girl was sexually assaulted in a downtown park last month. Police released a composite sketch of the suspect Monday morning in hopes someone will recognize him.
According to police, the teenager was sitting on a bench at Goldie Mill Park on Cardigan Street shortly before noon on May 15 when a man she doesn’t know touched her without consent and made inappropriate sexual comments.
The victim wasn’t physically hurt.
The suspect is described as a white man with slightly tanned skin, in his late 30s or early 40s, with dark eyes and of an average weight and height. He was unshaven, with messy brown hair over the ears and parted in the middle.
At the time he was wearing a navy blue T-shirt, beige or khaki shorts, old beige sandals and had a large beige or khaki backpack.
During the incident he was eating a red, white and blue Popsicle.
Anyone with information about the man’s identify is asked to call Det.-Const. Dave Gamsby of Guelph police’s special victims unit at 519-824-1212 ext. 7505 or email [email protected]. Details can also be provided anonymously through Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 or online at www.csgw.tips.
