By Sam Catanzaro
The University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) Police Department are asking the public for assistance in identifying a sexual assault suspect captured on camera.
According to UCLA police acting Capt. Kevin Kilgore, on July 16 a female was walking on the sidewalk near La Conte Avenue and Westwood Boulevard when she was approached by a man who began pushing her while making sexually explicit threats.
Multiple bystanders intervened by yelling, forcing the suspect to stop and the victim was able to escape by running from the scene uninjured.
The suspect, who was last seen walking southbound on Westwood Boulevard toward Weyburn Avenue, is described by UCLA police as around 35-years-old, 5-feet-8 inches tall with a thin build, shaved head, goatee and brown eyes. He was wearing a long white tank top, sagging khaki/gray pants and may have a tattoo on his left arm and shoulder area. In addition, police say he potentially was under the influence of drugs and/or drugs.
Anyone with information is asked to call UCLA police detectives at 310-825-1491.
