Police are seeking to identify a suspect wanted in connection with sexual assault investigation in Scarborough.
Toronto police said on Sunday at around 1:15 p.m., a woman was walking on the trail at the south end of Chine Drive.
Officers said a man allegedly emerged from the bush, had a verbal altercation with the woman before sexually assaulting her.
Police said the suspect was last seen running toward Brimley Road.
A day later, at around 10:30 a.m., police said another woman was walking on the same trail.
Officers said the same man allegedly approached the woman and had a verbal altercation with her.
