  "account": "A 39-year-old man from Toronto has been charged with two counts of sexual assault following allegations that he committed the crimes in the same Rexdale neighbourhood. The Toronto Police Service (TPS) revealed that officers responded to two separate sexual assault calls in the Albion Road and Silverstone Drive area. In the first incident, a woman was allegedly assaulted on August 19, while a similar assault occurred just weeks later on September 9. According to investigators, the suspect would emerge from a townhouse complex, follow and assault the female victims before fleeing. Police have arrested Adnan Koya, who now faces two counts of sexual assault and is set to appear in court on October 20. The TPS believes there may be more victims and has released a detailed description of Koya, hoping to identify any additional individuals who may have interacted with him. Koya is described as being between 5'8\" and 5'10\", with a medium build, brown eyes, a bald head, and a stubble beard. During the attacks, he was wearing a blue jacket with the hood up and black track pants, and had a distinct shuffling walk. Anyone with information regarding the suspect or additional victims is urged to contact the Toronto police at 416-808-2300.",
