A 28-year-old suspect has been charged in connection with an alleged sexual assault against a teenager in Surrey, B.C., earlier this month.

The B.C. Prosecution Service approved one count of sexual assault against Yusuf Mohiadin Ahmed in connection with the June 6 incident.

Ahmed has since been released from custody on “numerous conditions,” the Surrey Police Service said in a news release Monday. CTV News has asked authorities for more information on those conditions.

Police previously said the alleged victim was approached from behind and assaulted by a stranger in broad daylight, but managed to run away to safety.

Ahmed’s next scheduled court date is June 26.
