With the aid of a sketch of the suspect, the Princeton Police Department is asking for the public’s help in identifying a man who grabbed a woman’s buttocks while she was walking on Mercer Street around 9:15 a.m. August 10.
The Police Department released a sketch this week in an effort to help find the man and apprehend him. He is described as a Hispanic male, about 30 to 40 years old and standing about 5 feet 5 inches tall. He has short black or dark brown hair and weighs about 200 pounds.
The suspect approached the victim from behind and grabbed her buttocks as she was walking in the 100 block of Mercer Street. He knocked her to the ground and then fled the scene.
Anyone with information on this incident is asked to call police Det. Holly Arana at 609-921-2100, ext. 1834, or email harana@princetonnj.gov.
