Appeal For Witnesses To Harassment Incident
The police said they are aware of a social media post that describes an incident involving a man verbally harassing a teenage girl at the bus terminal on Thursday, and have urged any witnesses or people that may know the man’s identity to please contact the police.
A police spokesperson said, “The Bermuda Police Service is aware of a social media post that describes an incident involving a man verbally harassing a teenage girl at the bus terminal in the City of Hamilton around 4pm Thursday, May 16th.
“Thankfully, a member of the public stepped in and challenged the man’s actions, causing him to run off.
“The suspect is described as dark complexioned, with a bald head and is believed to be in his early 50s or 60s.
“A report has been made to police regarding this incident and inquiries are currently being conducted.
“Any witnesses who were in the area at the time – or members of the public that know the identity of the man involved – are asked to call the Vulnerable Persons Unit on 247-1678 at the earliest opportunity.”
Asking for witnesses is most important. Further to this, sometimes persons aff ected are not sure who to call or may feel quite frightened, thus the relevant authorities and helping agencies should identify themselves now.
