ATTLEBOROUGH, Mass. — Police are turning to the public for help identifying a man who allegedly accosted shoppers inside a Market Basket store earlier this week.
The incident happened at the grocery chain’s 1200 Newport Avenue location in Attleborough just after 7:15 p.m. on Tuesday, according to the Attleborough Police Department.
Investigators say the man “targeted and accosted” three female customers before fleeing on a bicycle. He was last seen riding south on Newport Avenue toward Pawtucket, Rhode Island.
The suspect is described as Black or Hispanic, possibly in his 20s to early 30s, about 5 feet, 5 inches tall, with a medium build and a beard.
Surveillance images shared by the police department showed the man wearing a black-and-white mesh baseball cap, a navy-blue hooded sweatshirt with the word “Nantucket” in white text and a white whale logo on the front, charcoal gray sweatpants, and light gray shoes.
Anyone who recognizes the man is urged to contact Attleborough Detective Keith Shepard at 774-203-1884.
