Queen City Cops Seek Tips About Man Accused Of Sexual Assault

MANCHESTER, NH — Police in New Hampshire’s largest city are asking for the public’s help identifying a man connected to a sexual assault allegation.

Around 8 a.m. on April 28, police were sent to Spruce Street for a report of a sexual assault. A woman told officers she was shopping at the Seven Days Market on Union Street when a man she did not know followed her home, Heather Hamel, the public information officer for the Manchester Police Department, said.

“She told police he came up behind her and grabbed her in a sexual manner,” she said. “The man was described as light-skinned Hispanic or Black, heavyset, wearing a black ball cap, pants, sweater, and face mask. He was clean and well kept.”

Police were able to view surveillance footage from the store and gathered photos of the suspect.

“The man is known to frequent the store and possibly lives in the area,” Hamel said.

If you know who this person is, you are asked to call the Manchester Police Department at 603-668-8711. You can also remain anonymous and call the Manchester Crimeline at 603-624-4040.
