Toronto police are looking for a man who is alleged to have sexually assaulted a woman and punched her in the face on the eastern outskirts of the city last week.
Police said a woman met a man identified as John on the evening of April 19 in the Greenwood and Danforth Avenue neighborhoods.
John then went with the woman to her apartment, where police said he threatened her with a mace if she refused to give him money and have sex with him.
Police said the woman obeyed and gave John $ 400. Although the woman complied with his request, John allegedly sprayed her with a mace and hit her.
On Sunday, police released a picture of John from a security camera, asking the public to help identify him.
He is described as white, aged 40 to 50, between five feet six and five feet and eight, skinny with dark hair and a full beard.
John was wearing a white or gray jacket with a black stripe over his shoulders and a patch on his left upper arm, dark pants and brown boots.
Police are asking anyone with information to contact them at 416-808-5500 or anonymously with Crime Stoppers at 416-222-TIPS (8477).
