FISHING CREEK- On October 17 at approximately 6:00 p.m., the Lower Township Police Department received a report of a sexual contact.
The victim was a 15 year-old female who was walking westbound in the eastbound shoulder of Breakwater Road near the Breakwater Plaza Shopping Center when a Hispanic/Mexican male approached her.
The subject was wearing a red and black flannel long sleeve shirt, blue jeans, had a distinctive bump on his nose and wrinkles around his eyes.
His physical description is approximately 5’08” in height, stocky to round build weighing approximately 200 lbs.
