West Shore RCMP has identified a person of interest it said may have information about a September sexual assault involving a young teenage girl.

In the investigation into the Sept. 6 sexual assault, which occurred at View Royal Park, 60 Pheasant Ln., the detachment last week released photos of a man as police believed he could help advance the case.

That man was identified on Nov. 29, but police didn’t say a suspect has been identified.

The suspect is described as a Caucasian man in his early 20s. He is approximately six feet tall, with a slim build and appeared to be underweight. They had facial stubble, possibly dirty blond hair and was wearing a blue zip-up hoodie and dark sweatpants with white shoes.
