Sex assault suspect sought

Surrey RCMP is requesting the public’s assistance in identifying a suspect in an alleged sexual assault after receiving video surveillance of the possible suspect. 

On May 2 at about 8:30 p.m., Surrey RCMP was advised of a sexual assault at a gas station in the 7100 block of King George Boulevard.

“The male suspect, accompanied by another male, entered the gas station and made inappropriate comments towards the female victim,” said Cpl. Scotty Schumann. “The male suspect then touched the victim in a sexual manner, when she was near the front counter, before being asked to leave by the store clerk.”

Surrey RCMP continue to investigate, but the man is still unidentified.

Video surveillance is now available and officers are hoping the public may be able to assist in identifying the suspect and his associate.

The suspect is described as a Caucasian male in his mid-30s, about 5-8, clean-shaven, with short dark hair, wearing a white T-shirt, white shorts, white shoes and socks, and dark sunglasses on his head. The male associate is described as a Caucasian male, in his late 20s to early 30s, wearing a grey tank top, black shorts, black hat, white shoes. He also has a goatee.

Anyone with more information is asked to contact the Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502 or Crime Stoppers, if they wish to remain anonymous, at 1-800-222-TIPS or go to www.solvecrime.ca.
