About 3.15pm on Thursday, a runner using the Narrabeen Lake trail was allegedly subjected to inappropriate sexual remarks. The perpetrator is described as being of Caucasian appearance, aged between 17 and 25, sporting short spiky hair and sideburns.

Two hours later, an e-bike rider allegedly approached another woman exercising at Bilarong Reserve, and sexually touched her before fleeing the area. The offender was estimated to be aged 15 or 16, with blond curly hair, and was wearing a red-and-white T-shirt at the time of the incident.

Two women were allegedly sexual touched within a half-hour span beside Narrabeen Lagoon on Monday afternoon by a person riding an e-bike. He is described as being aged between 16 and 18, of Caucasian appearance, about 175 centimetres tall. He was wearing a bright yellow top with green on the sides, long black pants and a round black helmet.

One of the women allegedly sexually touched on Monday told the Manly Observer the boy was seen earlier loitering around Bilarong Reserve on his e-bike. She was given a “huge fright” as the boy, riding behind her, allegedly touched her while she was walking away from him and listening to a podcast.

Another woman came forward to police on Monday, alleging she had been sexually touched by a man on an e-bike while walking by the Narrabeen Lagoon two weeks prior, on October 1. She described the man as Caucasian, aged in his 20s and about 175 centimetres tall.
