METRO Vancouver Transit Police are asking for the public’s assistance in identifying a suspect who allegedly sexually assaulted a woman at a SkyTrain Station in Surrey late last year.
On Thursday, August 17, 2023, just after 6 a.m., a woman entered Surrey Central SkyTrain Station and was making her way up to the platform. As the woman stepped onto the escalator the suspect followed closely behind her. While they were on the escalator, the suspect then allegedly sexually assaulted the victim.

The suspect is described as 30-40 years of age, 5’10’-6’ tall, with a dark complexion, slender build, wearing a wig with long dark wavy hair, a light coloured t-shirt, black biker shorts, light coloured running shoes and a small cross-body-style bag.
“Investigators have spent months exhausting every possible lead in this incident and are now requesting help in identifying the suspect, so that they can be held accountable for their actions. Anyone who recognizes the individual is asked to call police,” said Constable Amanda Steed on Thursday.
Anyone with any information about this assault or any other crime on transit is asked to contact Transit Police by phone at 604-515-8300 or by text at 87.77.77. Always call 9-1-1 in an emergency.
