____________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Police are asking for the public's assistance in locating 25-year-old Lawrence Nathaniel Harris of Northeast, D.C.

Harris is wanted on charges of simple assault after he allegedly placed a "fluid-filled" condom on a female passenger's shoulder aboard a Largo-bound Blue Line train on May 24.

The victim was not physically injured and though medical assistance was offered, it was declined.

Using digital cameras, Metro Transit Police say they were able to identify Harris as the possible suspect, and was then positively identified by the victim.

After the issuance of the arrest warrant, police say Harris made arrangements to turn himself in this morning at a D.C. Police station, but never did.

Anyone with information as to the whereabouts of Lawrence Nathaniel Harris is asked to call Metro Transit Police immediately at (202) 962-2121. Anonymous text tips may be sent to "MyMTPD" (696873).
