Assault suspect in OC Transpo bus sought by Ottawa police

The Ottawa Police Service is asking the public for help in identifying a suspect involved with an alleged assault on an OC Transpo bus last month.

On Aug. 23 at around 3 p.m., the suspect allegedly approached a group of youths on an OC Transpo bus, and assaulted and seriously injured one of them “without provocation.” He then got off the bus at Place d’OrlĂ©ans and took another bus.

He is described as being white, in his mid to late 30’s, heavy set, green eyes and a distinct mole on his right cheek. He was wearing a grey Adidas shirt, dark cargo pants, black boots and a black Senators ball cap, at the time the incident happened.

Anyone with information about this suspect is asked to call police at 613-236-1222, extension 3566, or Crime Stoppers toll-free at 1-800-222-8477 to remain anonymous.
