Police are re-appealing for public assistance after multiple sexual offences were allegedly committed against women on walking trails in Sydney’s Northern Beaches.
Officers attached to Northern Beaches Police Area Command commenced investigations after three separate incidents were reported in the Narrabeen area on Wednesday 7 October 2026 and Thursday 8 October 2026.
In each incident, an unknown person allegedly approached women on walking trails, sexually touched them and then rode away on an e-bike. In one of the incidents, the person also made inappropriate sexual comments.
Following an appeal for information, about 2pm on Monday 12 October 2026, officers received a report that a woman had been approached by an unknown man at Narrabeen Lagoon, near South Creek Road, Wheeler Heights, about 4.30pm on Thursday 1 October 2026. The man allegedly sexually touched the woman before riding away on an e-bike.
The man is described as being aged in his 20s, of Caucasian appearance, about 175cm tall, of medium build, with dark brown hair and was seen wearing long black pants and a blue shirt.
Strike Force Mexvo has since been established to investigate these incidents with the assistance of State Crime Command’s Sex Crimes Squad.
