Police north of Toronto are looking for a man caught on surveillance video pointing his cellphone up a woman's skirt while she is shopping at a grocery store.

In the video released by York Regional Police and shot Aug. 16 at a store in Richmond Hill, Ont., a man approaches a woman from behind and positions his phone up her skirt as she browses for an item on the store shelf.

The woman felt the man brush the inside of her leg, police say. She then turned in time to see him pulling the phone away. In the video, the man appears to browse the shelves before quickly walking away from the scene.

"Investigators believe that the man may have been using his phone to take a photo or video up the victim's skirt," York police said in a release.

Police say they've been unable to identify the man and hope someone will recognize him from the store surveillance video.

Police also released the following description:

Male, white.

25 to 35 years old.

Red hair.

Wearing blue jeans, a green-and-white-checkered shirt, a blue-and-white Hartford Whalers hat and black and white running shoes.
