You're being a wee bit obtuse.

Typically, being in the "nice" neighborhood does indeed preclude this type of behavior. That's why it's the nice neighborhood.

Another great part of being in the nice neighborhood is that it's usually full of concerned parties that have a vested interest in keeping it nice. Keep posting pictures/anecdotes until the guy is found. Get him out of our nice neighborhood.

Sexual assault, then. The editor in me is satisfied. With that out of the way, yes, duh, I hope they catch the guy. That said, I'm not sure why this being in a "nice neighborhood" precludes this sort of vaguely non-violent crime from happening.

What's the statute for being paid a compliment ?

Thank you for having the courage to voice your opinion while admitting total ignorance of the subject.

I'm not a lawyer, but pretty sure these incidents would amount to sexual assault.


I agree...it sounds like this woman was groped.

Sexual Assault Definition "can range from sexual groping or assault/battery, to attempted rape."

Really should be more talk about this since it occurred at a reasonable hour in the "safe" part of town.

A friend of my wife was assaulted last night, around 10p, near Van Vorst Park. He touched her inappropriately and, when she screamed, ran off down Bright.

She got a reasonably good look at the guy, so there is hope of him being found.

Remain vigilant as summer crime is back again.


Not sure how/if this can help, but I know a young woman who experienced the same thing in that area a couple of times the past month or so. I think she mentioned it actually happened to her twice in the same area. Some creep snuck up behind her at night, grabbed her backside aggressively and ran away...but she said he made a point of turning around to see her reaction. It sounded like the perp was young...late teens/20s/early 30s.

Varick and Barrow don't intersect.
