Today the Seattle Police Department sent out a press release asking for the public’s help in indentifying this man:
He’s suspected of assaulting a female passenger on the #3 bus that travels between downtown and the CD. He’s described as a hispanic male in his 20’s, 5’6” tall, thin, and wearing a Washington State University sweatshirt.
People with any knowledge of this suspect are urged to call Detective Young of the Seattle Police Department at (206) 684-8037. You can also make anonymous tips to Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS.
I knew I’d read about this before on here. I’m sure it’s the same incident and if not, what a coincidence.
“On Monday evening, March 2, the Department of Public Safety and Seattle Police received a report of indecent liberties (inappropriate/unwanted touching of the private parts of another) from a student. As the student reported, she was riding a Metro bus at approximately 4:40 p.m., when an unknown male sat down next to her. The student said she was looking out the window when the male placed his hand on her groin area. When the bus arrived at 10th Ave. and E. Jefferson St., the victim exited the bus, as did the suspect. The student reported that the suspect walked westbound toward Broadway Ave., and she ran into the Campion Residence Hall lobby, where she contacted Public Safety. The suspect was described as a male, approximately 30 years old, with medium to dark complexion. Seattle Police officers searched the area for the suspect, and he was not located.”
