This is "bleeping" ridiculous. How much would it cost to stakeout this area? Or have a plainclothed policewoman (or policeman in disguise) walk this area waiting to be "approached" by this perp? The frequency of attacks int the SAME area indicates compulsion. This guy is screaming please catch me!

He is laughing at the police at this point. My thoughts exactly on why they don't put a decoy out there in an attempt to catch him.
