Police continue to search for the man who they say sexually assaulted a woman on a PATCO train last month.
A 22-year-old woman was on the PATCO speed-line back on Jan. 27 around 4 a.m. between the Collingswood and Lindenwold stations when she was sexually assaulted by an unidentified man, investigators said.
The suspect was spotted on surveillance video getting out of a black pickup truck, possibly a Chevrolet with black rims, after being dropped off at the Westmont PATCO station earlier that morning shortly before 2 a.m., according to police.
No arrests have been made since the assault took place. PATCO riders who spoke to NBC10 say they’ve seen few posts on social media or flyers reporting the incident.
