Davis police are seeking a suspect who sexually battered a woman in South Davis on Sunday night.
According to police reports, the woman and a friend were removing items from a vehicle in the 1800 block of Cowell Boulevard at about 8 p.m. when the incident occurred.
“An unknown male suspect approached one of the females from behind and began touching her inappropriately against her will over her clothing,” Lt. Art Camacho said Tuesday. “The suspect fled the scene on a bicycle when a third person arrived and interrupted the incident.”
Officers searched the area but were unable to locate the suspect, described as a white or Hispanic male adult, about 5-foot-6 and of average build, clean shaven, wearing a black “hoodie” and blue jeans. He was last seen riding away on a blue beach cruiser-style bike, Camacho said.
Anyone with information about this incident is asked to contact the Davis Police Department at 530-747-5400.
