Toronto police are searching for a suspect accused of sexually assaulting and attacking a woman with a knife in the city’s west end last month.
According to police, a 49-year-old woman was at a park near Lakeshore Boulevard West and Strachan Avenue at about 5 a.m. on July 30 when she was approached by a male stranger.

The suspect has been described as a white male, approximately 25 to 35 years old, with tanned skin, short dark hair, a round face, large nose, black or brown eyes, a thin chin strap beard, and bushy eyebrows. The man was reportedly wearing dark pants at the time of the incident.
