POLICE are urgently appealing for witnesses after a teenage girl was sexually assaulted in Worcester.

The horror happened at around 8.10am on Thursday April 20 in Tunnel Hill as the girl was walking to school.

It was then that a man approached her an assaulted her.

West Mercia Police have now released a CCTV image of a man they believe may be able to help them with their enquiries.

He is described as tall, around 20-years-old, with blackish/brown straight hair wearing an orange tie-dye jumper with black on it.

The man was also in greyish jogging bottoms and trainers.

Investigating officer PC Rebecca Paley said: “We're releasing CCTV images of a man that we would like to speak to in connection with this incident…

"He may be able to help us with our enquiries and I would encourage either the man in the picture or anyone who thinks they may recognise him to get in touch with police as soon as you're able to."

She said the "very distinctive" hoody may help jog the memories of witnesses who were in the area at the time and may have seen him.

Anyone with any information is asked to contact PC Rebecca Paley on 07977 235581 or by email [email protected]
