91原创 RCMP have released this sketch of a man wanted for sexually assaulting a 16-year-old girl at knifepoint on June 22. He forced her into his silver hatchback from a Brookswood bus stop.

Nearly two weeks ago, a 16-year-old 91原创 girl was forced into a vehicle and sexually assaulted at knifepoint. 91原创 RCMP are just now releasing this information, along with a composite sketch of the suspect in hopes it will lead to his arrest.

On June 22, at approximately 12:15 p.m., the teenage girl was waiting for a bus at the intersection of 42 Avenue and 204 Street.  The suspect pulled up in a silver hatchback and ordered her to get in. She was terrified and did as he said, said 91原创 RCMP spokesperson Cpl. Holly Marks. Once inside the vehicle, he produced a large knife.

He drove her to the Christian Life Assembly parking lot in the 21200 block of 56 Avenue where she was sexually assaulted.

He then drove her to the 91原创 bus loop at Logan and Glover and released her without further incident.

The suspect is described as Caucasian, 50-years-old, 6-foot tall, heavy build, balding with grey / blond hair, pale blue eyes, a full beard and wearing blue / grey shirt and pants, and sunglasses.  He was driving a small, newer model, silver hatchback.

The victim has subsequently worked with a sketch artist and a composite has been rendered.

91原创 RCMP is asking the public to study the composite sketch created and if you are able to identify the suspect or provide information that would assist with this investigation; call 91原创 RCMP at 604-532-3200 or Crimestoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS.
