Toronto police said they were called to the area of Keele Street and Bloor Street West around 1:40 a.m.

They said that a female and a male were on the station’s west platform when he allegedly attacked the female, pulled her to the ground, and proceeded to sexually assault her.

He is described five-foot-six with a medium to heavy build, and brown facial hair. The suspect was last seen wearing a green-beige jacket, black jeans, black running shoes, a black hooded sweatshirt with a "Toronto Raptors" logo, and a purple baseball hat with a yellow brim and a "Minnesota Vikings" logo on the front.
