The women were walking in the Victoria Park and Danforth avenues area before 7 p.m. on Saturday, according to police, when they were approached by a man and sexually assaulted.
Personal items were also stolen from some women, investigators said. A passerby tried to intervene and was assaulted in the process, police said.
