Police said the incident took place around 6:15 p.m. July 8 when a female was walking on Brimmer Street toward the Charles/MGM MBTA station.
A suspect was walking in the opposite direction and allegedly approached the female and committed the indecent assault, fleeing up Chestnut Street toward Charles Street.
