The sexual assault happened around 3:30 p.m. May 30 on the sidewalk near parking lot NW10 off of Hubbard Road in Ann Arbor.
A student told police that she had been walking on the sidewalk when a man came up from behind and groped her through her clothing. She struck him in the face with her umbrella, and he fled the scene, according to authorities.
Another student said she was approached by a man while walking on the sidewalk around 4:30 p.m. near the same parking lot.
The man had his genitals exposed, authorities said. He fled in a black or dark blue sedan.
A short time later, another student said she saw a man watching her from a car while she walked in the same area. As she got closer, the man got out of the car with his pants around his knees, according to police.
