The Toronto Police Service is actively reaching out to the public as they continue the search for a suspected offender in a disturbing Toronto sexual assault case. The paucity of leads in capturing the suspect following the incident that occurred earlier this month has necessitated their plea.
The Call Recounting a Frightful Encounter

A Deep Dive into the Main Incident
As per the victim’s report, the assault took place while they were aboard the subway. A man, yet to be identified, had cornered them and proceeded to conduct the heinous act. With the evident need to flee the horrifying scene, the victim disembarked from the subway promptly after the incident.
