A man is being sought by police after allegedly indecently assaulting a woman waiting at a bus stop in the Auckland CBD over the weekend.<\/p>\n

Graeme Dylan Shuter, 34, allegedly approached two women in a short space of time on Mayoral Dr on Saturday, Detective Senior Sergeant Martin Friend said. <\/p>\n

Around 9.20am, the first victim was approached by Shuter, who allegedly attempted to “grab her and subject her to an indecent assault”.<\/p>\n

“Fortunately, she was able to hurry away from Shuter and crossed Mayoral Dr.”<\/p>\n

Minutes later, the man approached a woman from behind as she waited at a bus stop. <\/p>\n

Friend said he “subjected the woman to an alleged indecent assault before a passing member of the public was alerted to what was occurring”.<\/p>\n

Friend praised the member of the public, adding that their actions “stopped any further offending from occurring”.<\/p>\n

Shuter was last seen running on foot on Mayoral Dr towards Albert Park.<\/p>\n

Police have obtained two warrants to arrest Shuter for the alleged incidents, Friend said.<\/p>\n

“This is abhorrent offending and it\u2019s a priority that we locate this man and take him into custody to prevent any further harm to the community.”<\/p>\n

“Shuter\u2019s details have also been relayed to our frontline staff and Beat Team working across the CBD.”<\/p>\n

Anyone who sees Shuter has been advised to contact police immediately. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A man is being sought by police after allegedly indecently assaulting a woman waiting at a bus stop…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":152653,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[51,67,111,43,139,69],"class_list":{"0":"post-152652","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-new-zealand","8":"tag-auckland","9":"tag-crime-and-justice","10":"tag-new-zealand","11":"tag-news","12":"tag-newzealand","13":"tag-nz"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/152652","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=152652"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/152652\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/152653"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=152652"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=152652"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=152652"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
