The perpetrator was reported to be a Caucasian man, around five-foot-five, between 20 to 30 years old with a medium build. 

At around 3 p.m., a woman was walking on Northmount Drive Northwest when an "unknown man allegedly approached her from behind and sexually touched her." He fled from the scene in an SUV. 

The third sexual assault occurred when a man allegedly grabbed a woman from behind as she was walking on 14 Avenue Southwest and "touched her in a sexual manner."
