The Los Angeles Police Department is reaching out to the public Friday for help in identifying possible additional victims of a sexual assault suspect.
Peter Avraham Shure, 29, of Westchester, was arrested June 28 on suspicion of unlawful sexual intercourse with a minor, after investigators received two reports of forced sexual assault involving two female victims, police said.
Shure allegedly convinced the victims to go to his residence and sexually assaulted them, police said.
He is charged with two counts of forcible rape and one count of lewd act on a child, according to the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office.
Shure posted bond and was released from custody last Friday, jail records show. He is due back at the Airport courthouse Aug. 7, when a date is scheduled to be set for a hearing to determine if there is enough evidence to allow the case against him to proceed to trial.
Meanwhile, detectives have released Shure’s booking photo, saying they believe he may be responsible for additional assaults that have not been reported.
Anyone who believes they were victimized was asked to contact the LAPD’s juvenile division at 213-486-0570. Anonymous tips can be made by calling 800-222-8477.
