The suspect was spotted peering into the windows of an off-campus student housing complex on the 1800 block of North 16th Street near Temple University on two occasions, said the department's Special Victims Unit — once on Dec. 1 and again on Dec. 18.

He is described as a Latino man aged 30 to 35, standing about 5-foot-6 with a "stocky" build.

The suspect was last seen wearing a brown jacket with blue jeans, a dark knitted hat, and white sneakers. He is believed to drive a silver Honda Civic with a broken passenger-side headlight and an expired Pennsylvania temporary tag of 3827-305.
