LIVERMORE (CBS SF) -- Police are looking for a suspect who grabbed and groped a woman walking on a bike path in Livermore on Sunday afternoon, police said.
The woman was walking along the Arroyo Road bike path near South L Street at around 2:15 p.m. when the suspect approached her, police said.
The two started a conversation, and the man introduced himself as "Gabe." He extended his hand for a handshake, and when the woman took it, the man pulled her close to him and grabbed an intimate part of her body, police said.
