Daly City police search for sexual battery suspect

Daly City police are looking for a man who grabbed a girl walking on the street and slapped her earlier this month.

The 16-year-old victim was walking in the area of First and Castle streets around 3 p.m. on Oct. 7 when a male suspect attempted to talk to her,
