At 3:15pm, a female was hiking down Mount Wilson Trail when she was passed by a male hiker. 
After passing her, the male looked back toward her frequently. He then pulled down his pants, lifted 
his shirt and exposed his bare buttocks. The male continued down the trail, got into a vehicle and 
drove off. A possible suspect has been identified and the investigation is actively being pursued.

At 11:30 pm, officers responded to a call of a disturbance in the 400 block of West Sierra Madre 
Boulevard. They were met by the victim (male 51 years of age) who was bleeding from the mouth. 
He informed the officers that he was taking photographs of a vehicle that was illegally parked in 
his carport when he was confronted by a male who challenged him about the photos. A verbal 
argument ensued and the suspect punched the victim in the face multiple times. The victim then 
fled the scene. Follow up investigation located a resident of the apartment complex who may be 
the girlfriend of the suspect. This led to a possible identification of the suspect and detectives are 
currently attempting to locate him. The victim lost a few teeth in the incident but declined medical 
treatment.
