Hamilton police believe one man is responsible for six sexual assaults on women in the sex trade.

And they say he’s been seen in vehicles with a child seat. Police are asking the public to help them identify the suspect. They describe him as approximately 40-years old, between 5′ 8″ and 5′ 10″ with a medium athletic, muscular build. He’s also described as being bald, or having a shaved head. He’s clean shaven with a deep voice.

He’s been seen in a newer white four-door vehicle with a clean interior and child seat. One of the vehicles may be a red Dodge minivan with a clean grey interior and the child seat. He may also have access to, or have used, other vehicles. Police believe the same man committed the sexual assaults between July 2010 and September 2012, specifically in the warm weather months.

They say he approaches the victim in his vehicle while she’s on the sidewalk. They agree on a price for services and when she gets inside, he drives her to a secluded location and sexually assaults her. All of the assaults happened in the central-north and east-end area of Hamilton. If you have any information police are asking that you give them a call.
