Another woman attacked at night in the North End

Boston Police report a woman was indecently assaulted around 11:45 p.m. on Friday on Prince Street:

The female victim reports that she was walking in the area of Prince Street when a male suspect approached her and engaged in inappropriate contact.

Police say the suspect was a white Hispanic or Mediterranean male, in his late 20s or early 30s and between 5'6" and 5'8" with a thin build, short, dark hair and a goatee. He was also described as "well groomed" and wore a dark, hip-length wool coat, possibly with a dark shirt and dark shoes.

Police say they've stepped up patrols - again - in the North End following the attack, which comes after a number of other unsolved attacks on women walking alone in the North End late at night in recent years, most recently last August by a man described as white, Hispanic and 5'6".
