Another “Ghanaian Romeo” Arrested in Toronto

The Toronto Police Service has announced the arrest of a suspect in connection with two separate sexual assault investigations that occurred in different parts of Toronto quite recently.

Police said the first incident took place on Sunday, May 10, 2026, at approximately 5:30 p.m. in the Dundas Street West and Bloor Street West area.

According to investigators, an adult female victim was inside a commercial building when an unknown male suspect allegedly followed her into an office space. The suspect is alleged to have approached the victim from behind and sexually assaulted her before fleeing the scene.

Police said the victim and suspect were not known to each other and that the victim did not sustain physical injuries.

In a separate incident, police responded to another sexual assault call on Saturday, May 9, 2026, at approximately 8:10 p.m. near Dundas Street East and De Grassi Street.

Investigators allege that a group of adult females were walking along the sidewalk when the suspect approached them. Police said the suspect allegedly grabbed one woman’s forearm, made verbal sexual advances, sexually assaulted her, and then fled the area. Authorities confirmed that the victim and suspect were strangers and that no injuries were reported.

Following investigations into the two incidents, police located and arrested a suspect on Tuesday, May 12, 2026.

The accused has been identified as 30-year-old Samuel Opoku, who police described as having no fixed address.

He has been charged with two counts of sexual assault and one count of indecent exposure.

Police said the accused was scheduled to appear before the Toronto Regional Bail Centre located at 2201 Finch Avenue West on Tuesday, May 12, 2026, at 9:30 a.m. in Room 102.
