The first incident took place about 6 p.m. Aug. 6 when a female was walking her dog near the intersection of Caitlin and Sheddon streets when she was approached from behind by a man on foot.
The suspect sexually battered the woman and then walked away when the victim started yelling.
He is described as a black male with short hair, clean shaven, in his 20s, 5-feet 9-inches tall, with a medium build and three gold stud earrings in one ear.
The second suspected battery occurred at 1:15 p.m. Sept. 7 inside a store in the 1700 block of West Orangethorpe Avenue.
The victim was sexually battered from behind by the suspect, described as a Hispanic male, from mid-30s to mid-40s, short black hair, brown eyes, 5-foot, 8-inches tall and wearing a blue, button-down short-sleeve shirt and Dockers pants.
The suspect also was accompanied by a Hispanic female with long black hair, a side ponytail and wearing a flowered dress.
