The police sketch of the suspect.
By Emma Rose Johnson, Globe Correspondent
Boston University police are on the lookout for a Peeping Tom who allegedly sneaked into a women's bathroom recently in an academic building on campus.
The incident occurred at 3:45 p.m. June 19 in a bathroom at 675 Commonwealth Ave., the victim told police. The woman said she was in a stall when the suspect entered the bathroom and looked over the stall's dividing wall. The victim said she screamed, causing the man to run.
The building contains classrooms and faculty offices. Summer classes were in session.
Police released a sketch of the suspect Friday and sought help from the public in catching him. It is unclear whether the suspect is a BU student. University spokesman Colin Riley said the sketch suggests he is older than the average student at BU. Anyone with information is asked to call 617-353-2121.
