Cambridge Police are releasing a series of videos and photos of a suspect they believe is associated with three separate indecent assaults.
The first one occurred on Feb. 10, when a 35-year-old Cambridge woman reported that she was approached from behind in the Mason Street and Phillips Place near Harvard Square shortly after 9 a.m. and a suspect reportedly put their hand on her buttocks then her groin. The suspect then ran to Brattle Square.
On April 13, a 47-year-old Somerville woman was physically and sexually assaulted near the Porter Exchange Shopping Center on Mass. Ave at around 8:40 a.m. The woman said she was walking down Roseland Street toward Mass. Ave when she felt someone quickly approach her. As she tried to step away, the suspect reportedly reached up her skirt and felt her buttocks before running away.
On Aug. 24, a 19-year-old Cambridge woman reported that a man came up behind her and grabbed her chest on Prescott Street and Broadway near Harvard Yard at around 3:20 p.m. When she turned around, the suspect reportedly laughed and ran toward Prescott and Cambridge Street. Police stopped a man who resembled the suspect, but was later determined not to be the suspect.
The suspect was described in each case as a man, possibly Hispanic, who stands between 5’3″ and 5’8″, has a medium build and was carrying a black backpack. He is believed to have a unique gait, and often runs on his toes.
Police released surveillance video after the April attack and investigated a number of subsequent tips, but did not identify a suspect.
