On October 15, 2022 at approximately 7:30PM two females, age 15 and 18, while on an MBTA Red Line train were Indecently Assaulted by an unknown male. The assaults took place on the train just outside Broadway Station. As a result of a Transit Police detective investigation a suspect was developed and a Person of Interest Poster was generated. On October 25, 2022 at approximately 6PM a very observant TPD officer spotted a male whom he believed resembled the subject depicted in the poster. The officer approached the male just outside of Downtown Crossing on Winter Place. The male, later identified as Edgar Alonzo, 35, of Dorchester, was positively identified as the offending male and placed into custody for Indecent Assault & Battery 2 counts and transported to TPD HQ for the arrest booking process.
