The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department Special Victims Bureau is requesting help from the public to identify the suspect and witnesses of a sexual assault that occurred on Bus Line 217, Route 11, La Cienega Expo Line, southbound Sepulveda Boulevard, at Slauson Avenue, Culver City.

The victim reported that she and the suspect boarded the bus at the same time at La Cienega Blvd. and Jefferson Blvd., in Culver City. The suspect followed her to the rear of the bus where she sat down. The suspect, without any warning or provocation, stood and faced her while positioning himself between her legs and sexually assaulted her.
