Toronto police are looking for a male suspect after a woman was allegedly sexually assaulted at the TTC’s Bloor-Yonge subway station.

Police said officers were called to the station just before 8:30 p.m. Friday.

According to police, the woman was walking on the stairs between the Bloor and Yonge subway platforms when a man going down the same set of stairs sexually assaulted the woman.

Police said a witness saw the incident and confronted the male suspect, but the man ran into a crowd of people exiting a subway train and disappeared.

Investigators described the man as 25 to 35 years old, standing 5’9″ to 6′ with a medium build and having brown hair. He was last seen wearing a red golf shirt, navy blue shorts and brown sandals.

Anyone with information is being asked to call 14 Division at 416-808-1400 or Crime Stoppers anonymously at 416-222-8477.
