The University of Victoria says a "male community member" was sexually assaulted in a men's washroom on the ground floor of the Cornett Building on Tuesday morning.
Saanich police are investigating a sexual assault inside a washroom on the University of Victoria campus earlier this week.
The university says a "male community member" was sexually assaulted in a men's washroom on the ground floor of the Cornett Building on Tuesday morning.
The attacker is described as a heavy-set man, at least 60 years old, who fled the scene on foot.
The attack was reported to campus security, who are "closely monitoring the area," the university said in a campus safety bulletin.
"We are sharing this information out of care and concern for the campus community and out of an abundance of caution as the perpetrator remains unidentified," the statement said.
A Saanich police spokesperson said the department is investigating and will provide more details about the assault Thursday.
The Cornett Building houses the school's departments of anthropology, psychology and sociology.
