Police investigating a sexual assault in Stevenage town centre, are releasing an image that might help with continuing enquiries. 

The incident occurred between 3pm and 330pm on Saturday, May 13 on Market Place in the town centre. 

It is reported that a man approached a group of girls, before shouting at them and then inappropriately touching one of the girls, before the group managed to run away. 

Police Constable Bridie Compton, who is investigating, said: "This is a worrying incident which has understandably shaken and upset the girl involved. 

"We are interested in speaking to this person, who we think might be able to assist with our enquiries into the incident. 

"At Hertfordshire Constabulary, we have zero tolerance against this kind of crime and we will be doing all we can to track down the individual involved. 

"If you have any information, no matter how big or small you think it is, please email me via [email protected]."  

Information can also be reported online at herts.police.uk/report, by speaking to an operator in our Force Communications Room via our online web chat at herts.police.uk/contact or by calling the non-emergency number 101, quoting crime reference 41/39731/23.
