(CBS) – Chicago police are looking for a suspect who allegedly groped a female passenger aboard a CTA train earlier this month.

Police say the 22-year-old victim told authorities she was riding a southbound Blue Line train around 6 p.m. June 15 in the 100 block of West Congress Parkway when a male offender touched her inappropriately.

The victim moved away and left the train at the next stop, police said. The suspect followed her off the train and up an escalator before returning to the platform and boarding a different southbound train.

Anyone with information about the suspect – police released surveillance images Friday – should call Area Central detectives at (312) 747-8380.
