Toronto police are asking for the public's help identifying a suspect they allege assaulted an e-bike rider before taking off with the bike.
Police say the alleged robbery took place last Wednesday, Aug. 27, around 7:15 a.m. along Danforth Avenue, shortly before Pape Avenue.
According to a news release Monday, police say a man was on an e-bike heading east when he was stopped by a white Acura sedan.
The suspect demanded the e-bike, proceeded to push the victim off the e-bike, then "assaulted the victim several times" before getting on the e-bike and leaving, according to police.
The victim was minorly injured as a result, police say.
Police say the suspect is a white man between five feet seven inches and five feet nine inches. They say he has a thin to medium build and was last seen
