A sex attacker is being hunted by police after he targeted a terrified young woman in Market Harborough.

The 6ft 5ins hooded suspect touched his victim “inappropriately” in Ashley Way, Harborough, just after midnight on Sunday March 22.

The woman in her 20s was walking along Ashley Way towards Rockingham Road when she was approached by the man who touched her.

The shocked woman ran off into the darkness and the man sprinted off as well - towards Kettering Road.

PC Robin Bonell, the investigating officer, said: “I would like to speak to anyone who was in Ashley Way in the early hours of yesterday morning and saw someone matching this description.”

He added: “I’m particularly keen to speak to taxi drivers or anyone who has a dashcam installed in their vehicle.

“Likewise, I’d like to speak to anyone who has CCTV cameras installed at their property.

“Any information you have could help my investigation.”
