Alberta RCMP are looking for a man who is believed to have assaulted a teen after trying to lure two other teens at the Mission Ridge Shopping Centre in St. Albert.
Mounties say the alleged incident happened around 9 p.m. on June 26, when they received a report indicating two 15-year-old girls were approached by an unknown man.
The man then reportedly asked the girls if they wanted to do drugs and have sex with him. Both the girls refused and walked over to their friend and told him what happened.
The teenage boy then confronted the man, but was then punched in the face.
Police note an adult then attempted to intervene, however the suspect fled the area.
The man is described as being in his late 20s, with a slim build, black hair and a moustache. At the time, he was wearing a black hoodie and black shorts.
Anyone who may have any information is asked to contact investigators at 780-458-7700 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
