The girl was conducting business in the area when the man assaulted her around 7 p.m., according to Longmont Police Sgt. Matt Cage. The girl did not need medical attention.
The man ran from the area leaving behind a “purple flashlight with the initials “ESL” etched into it and a black beanie cap with a white stripe and patch that reads ‘DP DIESEL POWER GEAR,’” according to a news release.
The man was wearing a large heather gray ski-type jacket with a dark lined hood and darker brown khaki cargo pants, according to police. He was described as having a raspy voice and smelled strongly of cigarettes.
