Police say on Saturday a 29-year-old woman was groped by a stranger while standing outside the Vancouver Art Gallery near Howe and West Georgia Streets. Three blocks away and minutes later, a 24-year-old woman walking near West Georgia and Thurlow Streets was also sexually assaulted.
A bystander witnessed that incident, reported it to police, and followed the suspect from a distance. Both women were “startled and shaken,” but had the presence of mind to report the incidents to police, said Vancouver Police spokesman Sgt. Steve Addison. “Their quick thinking, and help from an alert witness, helped VPD officers track the suspect and quickly take him into custody.”Share this article in your social network
