Lacey police are asking the public to help identify a man accused of assaulting a person at a bus stop.

The morning of May 29, police say the man, unprovoked, assaulted a “random citizen” at a bus stop in the 4700 block of Corporate Center Drive, which takes a curved path between College Street Southeast and Yelm Highway.

Although the assault happened that morning, the victim didn’t report it until about 1:45 p.m. when the victim called 911 needing medical aid, a dispatcher said. The Olympian has reached out to police for additional information.

The suspect is described as between 5-foot-7 and 6-foot-2 and was last seen wearing dark pants, a blue blazer and brown shoes.

Anyone with information is asked to call the Thurston County dispatch non-emergency line at 360-704-2740.
