The Prospect Park Police Department said Wednesday it is searching for a man who is accused of committing an indecent assault on a girl under 18 inside a Dollar Tree.

“After being inappropriately touched, she immediately took her younger sister into a public restroom, locked the door, and called for help,” Prospect Park Police Chief Dave Madonna said on social media. “Those quick actions were exactly the right thing to do and likely helped prevent the situation from escalating.”
Madonna urged anyone with information on the incident to contact the department at 610-534-2222 or by messaging him on Facebook.
