Rapper Meek Mill offered a $2,000 reward for anyone who can identify a man who sexually assaulted a woman on a Philadelphia Dollar Tree store on Wednesday.
The suspect is accused of masturbating onto a woman’s leg inside the store.
The man was also caught on video as he fled the store and police confirmed that the man on the video was wanted in connection with the incident, according to Philadelphia’s WTXF-TV.

“The PPD extends its gratitude to the public for their assistance in locating Mr. Miles,” read a statement from the Philly police, according to Fox 29.
Police found that the man has frequently been seen wandering around the area and that he is a homeless man living under the I-95 underpass.
Ultimately, the suspect later surrendered to police and was identified as Gary A. Miles.
