With an increase of assaults and suspicious behaviour in the Brisbane region, women are encouraged to be cautious when walking alone.
This follows the attack of a 16-year-old girl in Chermside West yesterday.
The attacker was described as Caucasian, aged in his late 20s to early 30s, and about 185cm tall with a proportionate build.
Police are appealing for anyone who noticed a man acting suspiciously or out of place in Chermside West on Wednesday to come forward.
