Surrey RCMP is advising the public of a stranger sexual assault in the South Surrey area and asking the public for information.

On July 31, 2024 at 8:10 am, Surrey RCMP responded to a report of a sexual assault at the community recreation center located in the 16800-block of 24 Avenue. The victim reported she had entered an accessible washroom when she was confronted by an unknown man. The man allegedly assaulted her and groped her before fleeing the stall after she alerted others.

The suspect is described as a Caucasian man, medium build, wearing a grey shirt, black shorts and a black hat.

The Surrey RCMP Serious Crime Unit has now taken conduct and is continuing with CCTV canvassing in the area. The victim is being supported by Surrey RCMP Victim Services.

The brazen nature of this incident is extremely concerning, says Cpl. Sarbjit K. Sangha, Media Relations Officer for the Surrey RCMP. If you were in the community center and may have seen or heard something suspicious, we urge you to call the Surrey RCMP.

Anyone with information or in the vicinity of the community recreation center on July 31, 2024 between 7:00 am to 9:00 am and may have seen or heard something suspicious, we urge you to call Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502 and quote file 2024-112116.
