Toronto police say they are searching for a suspect after a woman reported she was sexually assaulted shortly after she got off a TTC bus earlier this week.
Police said on Sunday, just before midnight, a 20-year-old woman was on the 3207 Finch line TTC bus heading eastbound on Finch Avenue East.
A man had board the bus from the south-west corner of McCowan Avenue and sat at the back of the bus, police said.
Investigators said the man and the woman both got off the bus at the same stop and began walking southbound on Littles Road, near Sewells Road.
The man allegedly sexually assaulted the woman and then fled southbound, police said. Officers were called to the area just after midnight on Monday.
