Auckland Central Police are seeking a man in connection with an alleged indecent assault at the weekend.
Police have obtained a warrant to arrest 34-year-old Graeme Dylan Shuter over offending that occurred on the morning of 22 November.
Detective Senior Sergeant Martin Friend, Auckland Central Area Investigations Manager, says two women were approached in a short space of time on Mayoral Drive.
“At around 9.20am, the first victim was approached by Shuter, and he allegedly attempt to grab her and subject her to an indecent assault.
“Fortunately, she was able to hurry away from Shuter and crossed Mayoral Drive.”
Minutes later he approached a second woman from behind waiting at a bus stop.
“There he has subjected the woman to an alleged indecent assault before a passing member of the public was alerted to what was occurring.”
Detective Senior Sergeant Friend praises the actions of a passerby, who disturbed the offending taking place.
“Their actions have stopped any further offending from occurring.”
Shuter was last seen running on foot on Mayoral Drive towards Albert Park.
Police have now obtained two warrants to arrest Shuter for indecent assaults.
“This is abhorrent offending and it’s a priority that we locate this man and take him into custody to prevent any further harm to the community,” Detective Senior Sergeant Friend says.
“Shuter’s details have also been relayed to our frontline staff and Beat Team working across the CBD.
“Anyone who sees Shuter should contact Police immediately.”

He better run, now we know, what he look’s like, and have his name.
Well at least he’ll be having sex again soon.
It’ll be in jail of course, so probably not what he had in mind 😕
