Durham Regional Police say the mother and child were in the shopping centre at Harmony Rd. N. and Taunton Rd. E. when the frightening incident allegedly unfolded around 10:30 a.m. on Aug. 21.

“While the female and her child were walking between aisles, a male followed her and committed an indecent sexual act,” police claim in a statement released Saturday. “The female and her child left the store and contacted police.”

Police said the mother and her child were not physically hurt.

“A female was walking on a track near a school, in the area of Coldstream Dr. and Harmony Rd. N.,” police said. “The female observed the same suspect enter the track and walk the opposite direction toward her.”

Police said the man allegedly “circled the track a few times before revealing his genitals to the female.”

The female, who was also not physically harmed, left the area and notified police.

The suspect is described as Black, about 6-foot-3, with a medium build, and was wearing a black toque, a cream or beige hoodie, black-and-white plaid pajama pants, and black slippers.

Police have now released images of a suspect hoping the public can help identify and locate him.

Anyone with cellphone, dashcam or security camera footage that could help investigators, or information regarding the suspect’s identity or whereabouts, is urged to call police at 1-888-579-1520, ext. 1617, or Crime Stoppers anonymously at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).
