NEW WESTMINSTER — The British Columbia Prosecution Service has approved charges relating to three alleged sexual assaults on Metro Vancouver’s transit system.
A statement from the region’s Transit Police says the first complaint was made in January last year, when a woman on a crowded Canada Line train called police to say that a man had made inappropriate physical contact with her.
Then, in April last year, a man was seen standing suspiciously close to a teenage passenger on the Canada Line, and when he leaned into the girl, a witness called police.
On a crowded Expo Line train last May, a woman felt someone pressing into her numerous times, and when she turned to confront the man, he left the train at the next stop.
