BERKELEY — Officers are asking for the public’s help in finding a suspect in the assault and robbery of a female victim early Sunday, police said.

Around 2:40 a.m., officers responded to the intersection of Dana and Durant streets for a report of strong-arm robbery and possible sexual battery. There, they learned a man had grabbed and possibly groped a victim before stealing property from her. The victim was not injured, police said.

The suspect, described by police as an African-American male wearing a dark T-shirt and jeans with short dreadlocks and a grill on his lower teeth, then fled in an older-model sedan similar to a Ford Taurus that may have had up to three other people inside.

Berkeley police searched the area but were not able to find the suspect or vehicle. Anyone with information should call Berkeley police at 510-981-5900.
