A 31-year-old Gungahlin man faced the ACT Magistrates Court this morning, Monday 19 April, charged with committing an act of indecency without consent and common assault.

ACT Policing arrested the man on Sunday evening, 18 April, after investigating an assault committed on a woman in a Gungahlin shop on Monday 5 April and an act of decency on a different woman in a Gungahlin supermarket on Saturday morning, 17 April.

Investigations revealed the same man was believed responsible for both incidents, and he was arrested at his home after police executed a search warrant yesterday.
