The Saskatoon Police are currently requesting assistance from the public in identifying a male that has been the subject of two complaints from customers at two separate retail businesses on the east side of the city.
On March 7, 2026 just before 10:00 a.m., in the car seat section of a large department store in the 1700 block of Preston Ave. N., the male was reported to have approached a six year old girl and motioned for her to step away from her family and approach him.
On April 9, 2026 at 12:45 p.m.., in the children’s section of a retail store in the 3100 block of 8th St. E., the male was reported to have motioned for a four year old girl to approach him.
Surveillance video from both stores has been reviewed and it is believed that the male involved in both incidents is the same person. An image is attached for distribution.
The male is described as being in his 50’s, Caucasian in appearance and clean shaven. The male wore a black Under Armour ball cap in both instances. Worn in the Preston Ave. incident was a black jacket with grey shoulders, blue jeans and black runners. Worn in the 8th St. E. incident was a black jacket, tan pants and black runners.
To further investigate the actions and intentions of the male involved, the police are requesting that anyone who may be able to assist in identifying the male contact police at 306-975-8300 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
