(KSL News) -- Police are investigating a second sexual assault at Sugarhouse Park in two months.

A 41-year-old man says he went to wash his hands in a restroom Tuesday afternoon when a man approached him from behind and grabbed him.

He described his attacker as 18 to 21-years old, five feet eight inches tall, with short black hair, mustache and bad acne. He left the area on foot.

Detective Joe Cyr, Salt Lake Police Dept: "We encourage people to be watchful, be careful when you go into public places anywhere. Stay in groups, attend your children when they go into public restrooms. Just be careful."

Anyone with information is asked to call Salt Lake Police.

Last month a 14-year-old boy was followed into a restroom in the park and sexually assaulted. He also described his molester as having dark hair and a mustache.
