A man is wanted for allegedly sexually assaulting a six-year-old child in Roundhouse Park in the CityPlace neighbourhood on August 19 around 4:15 p.m.

Toronto police say the child was playing trains in the park when a male suspect walked up and sexually assaulted them. When confronted by the child's parent, the suspect allegedly assaulted the child again before fleeing the area.

Police describe the suspect as approximately 55 to 60 years old, five foot six inches tall, with an average build. He has a receding hairline with a bald crown, black and grey hair, is clean shaven, and wears prescription glasses with a silver metal frame. His image has been released.

Anyone with information about the suspect is asked to contact Toronto Police Service.
