A 27 year old man has been arrested for sexual assault, indecent exposure and obstructing a police officer.
Westshore RCMP responded around 7 pm Thursday night to reports an intoxicated man was exposing himself in the 800 block of Orono Road in Langford.
They didn't find him there, but a second call came in less than a hour later saying a suspect is alleged to have sexually assaulted a woman by touching her in a sexual manner and running away.
The suspect was collared after a short chase in the Goldstream-Island Highway area. He remains in custody.
