Indecent assault at Straus Hall

On Tuesday, Sept. 11, at 1 a.m., the Harvard University Police Department (HUPD) responded to a report of an indecent assault. The freshman victim was entering the "A" entry door when someone lifted her skirt from behind. The assailant fled Harvard Yard to Massachusetts Avenue, down Dunster Street, and then down Winthrop Street. A thorough search of the area proved negative.

The suspect is described as a white male, 5-foot-10-inches tall, brown hair, medium build, wearing a dark colored long-sleeved jersey with a light-colored stripe across the chest.

If you have any information regarding this incident, please contact HUPD, Criminal Investigation Unit at (617) 495-1796.
