A 59-year-old man has been charged in connection to a “violent” sexual assault in East Vancouver, police said Wednesday.
Choe Wing Ma is charged with sexual assault and robbery in connection to the May 23 incident.
Police said they had arrested a man on Monday, after they released images and description of a suspect a few days earlier.
A woman in her 20s was followed home from a bus stop near East 41 Avenue and Earles Street by an unknown man who struck up a conversation with her while waiting for the bus.
The man then allegedly assaulted her inside her home before fleeing, and the woman called 911.
