The Ontario Provincial Police has released a composite sketch of a suspect believed to be involved in a sexual assault in Leamington.
Around 7pm on June 29, a teenaged girl was walking in the area of Fox and Chestnut St. when a man on a bicycle approached her and touched her inappropriately.

The girl told police officers the man was between 18 and 23 years old, tall with a thin build, and wearing "pop-bottle" prescription glasses with blue frames. He had short dark hair with a part, a chin strap-type beard, and a partially-grown moustache. She said he spoke Arabic and was riding a red mountain bike with curled handlebars, similar to an old ten-speed bicycle.
Now that the composite sketch has been released, police hope to hear from anyone who may have witnessed the incident, or have information about the suspect. Tipsters can call the Ontario Provincial Police Major Crime Unit at 519-326-2544 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 (TIPS).
