Vancouver police say they believe a 15-year-old boy is the person who groped a jogger Sunday, and they have referred the case to the prosecutor’s office.
The assault happened early Sunday in the Rose Village neighborhood. A woman said she was running in the 2900 block of S Street when a male approached her from the rear and grabbed her buttocks. She confronted him and chased him, but he eluded her. She wasn’t injured.
Police said Tuesday that they had identified the suspect and have recommended he be charged with fourth-degree assault.
