UK Police issued a crime bulletin Monday to warn campus of suspicious activity from an unidentified male riding a bike and harassing women.
Interim police chief Maj. Joe Monroe said UK Police is increasing patrols and field investigations, which include approaching anyone matching the suspect’s description and recording their name and basic information.
Monroe said no police reports were filed but two different calls were made to UK Police reporting incidents which occurred Sunday night and Monday afternoon.
Another two incidents off-campus with a matching description of the suspect were called in to the Lexington Police Department last week. Monroe said those two incidents occurred near South Broadway and Angliana Avenue.
In the various incident, Monro said the suspect was reported to have made “lewd†comments, grasped his genitalia and attempted to grab the women and also pushed a woman to the ground.
The suspect is described as a white male in his mid 20s to early 30s, 5’9†and around 220 to 240 pounds with a heavy build. The suspect has short dark hair, an unshaven face and bad teeth, and was last seen wearing a dark colored hooded sweatshirt and a camouflage hat while riding an older model light blue bicycle that squeaked.
Anyone with information relating to this investigation is asked to contact UK Police at (859) 257-1616. Check back with kykernel.com for more updates.
