Toronto police are searching for a man who claimed to be a “spiritual holistic healer” and allegedly sexually assaulted a victim during a service late last week in midtown Toronto.
The incident happened on Oct. 9 near Yonge Street and Eglinton Avenue East.
Police say the man approached another person on a public roadway and asked for help finding an address.
During that interaction, he reportedly engaged the individual in conversation and represented himself as a spiritual holistic healer, police said, before arranging to perform a reading. During that service, he allegedly sexually assaulted the victim, investigators said.
