Ontario Provincial Police are searching for a man wanted in two sexual assaults in a town west of Ottawa.
Police in Lanark County say an unknown man touched a woman inappropriately as they walked by each other in the town of Almonte, Ont.
The incident happened Friday at about 4:55 p.m. Minutes later another woman was verbally harassed in a sexual manner in an Almonte store by the same man, police believe.
The suspect is described as Caucasian, standing six feet tall with brown shoulder-length hair, which is messy. He also has blue eyes and a patchy beard.
The man was wearing shorts and a white cut-off T-shirt at the time.
Anyone with information about these assaults should call the OPP at 613-267-2626 or 1-888-310-1122 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
