ORONTO — Police north of Toronto have released new details in a violent sexual assault that took place more than 12 years ago, hoping that describing the suspect’s unusual behaviour may finally lead to an arrest.

“He sexually assaults her and afterwards his demeanour has changed from very violent, controlling to ‘I’m very sorry,’” Det. Shawna Leitch, of York Regional Police’s special victims unit –sexual assault cold case section, said in a video released on Tuesday.

Leitch said this type of behaviour is not common in sexual assault suspects. She hopes that revealing this information now may lead to other victims coming forward to police.

The sexual assault took place just after midnight on May 8, 2008. At the time, a 20-year-old woman was walking home after getting off the Toronto subway at Finch Station.

She was walking northbound on Yonge Street towards Steeles Avenue before turning onto Royal Palm Drive when she noticed a man was walking behind her.

“She didn’t really think much of it because it was garbage day, there were dog walkers around,” Leitch said.
