Detectives investigating the attempted sexual assault on a teenage girl in Doncaster have launched an appeal for help in identifying a man they would like to speak to in connection with their investigation.

In an appeal made today, South Yorkshire Police said:

“We are releasing photos of a man we would like to speak to in connection with reports of an attempted sexual assault.

It is reported that at around 8.30am on 10 September 2024, a man attempted to kiss a 16-year-old girl at a bus stop on Sandford Road, Doncaster.

Since the incident was reported to us, an investigation has been launched and enquiries have been ongoing to establish the circumstances, this includes CCTV image circulation and further CCTV searches.

Officers established that further CCTV opportunities were unavailable, and we are now sharing these photographs of a man we would like to speak to as we believe he can help with the investigation.

The man in these images is described as Eastern European, 30-40 years old, of a stocky build, and with medium length dark brown hair.

Do you recognise him?
