There has been another case of a senior woman being attacked by a teenaged boy.
The latest incident happened last Friday along Penbrooke Drive in the southeast.
The teen followed her on his bike and told the woman in her 60s he wanted to kiss and hug her. After that he left her alone.
Five days before that event, another elderly lady was approached in the same manner and area, but she was pushed to the ground.
One of the suspects is described as:
Aboriginal, possibly 16 to 17-years-old, with a heavy build. He was riding a bicycle and was wearing a blue helmet.
The other suspect’s description:
Male, 13 to 14-years-old, approximately 5’4; with a skinny build. He was wearing a bike helmet, blue jacket, blue jeans, carrying a blue back pack and riding a rusty-coloured bike.
Police feel the suspects could be the same person as victims sometimes have a hard time describing assailants and the two incidents were very similar in nature.
They feel the suspect may have mental-health issues.
