CLAYTON HEIGHTS — RCMP are hoping the public can help them find a man who committed an indecent act near Clayton Heights Secondary School earlier this week.
On Monday (March 16) at about 12:30 p.m., police responded to a call about a man “committing an indecent act†in a trail area in the 7000-block of 188th Street.
The woman who called the cops said she was walking her dog at the time, and that the man did not approach her but he wanted her to see him. She said he then got on his bike and rode east on 68th Avenue.
The man in question is described as Hispanic, about 20 years old, slim with short, dark hair and was wearing a brown hoodie and shorts. He took off on his BMX-style bike, which had orange rims.
Police say two similar incidents happened in the area two weeks ago.
On March 2 at about 1 p.m., police were called about a man committing an indecent act behind the same school. That man was described as Caucasian, in his 20s, with a medium build, tattoos on his arms, wearing a grey hoodie and dark jeans, again riding a BMX bike.
On March 5 at around 8:30a.m. RCMP were called about a man exposing himself to two students in a laneway north of 70th Avenue between 190th Street and 188A Street.
He was described as Caucasian, about 30 to 40 years old, approximately 5-foot-ten, with greying hair and wearing dark clothes.
Surrey RCMP Sgt. Dale Carr said police “have not been able to conclusively link these investigations at this early stage, (but) there are enough similarities that caused our analysts and investigators to take notice.â€
Anyone with any information about these incidents is asked to call the Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502, or if you wish to remain anonymous, Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS.
