An e-fit image of a man police would like to trace in connection with the sexual assault of a female cyclist on Gill Street, Hyde Park.

Officers have issued an e-fit in a bid to trace the man, thought to have struck as the travelled along Gill Street, in Hyde Park.

The incident happened as the 29-year-old Balby woman made her way home.

The woman was able to escape towards Trafford Way, but was followed by the attacker who grabbed her a second time. But he fled when a car approached.

The man was described as being of Asian appearance, aged in his early twenties, 176cm tall, of slim build, with wide shoulders. His hair was medium length and ‘stuck up’. It was shortly trimmed around his ears, coming to a point on his chin but not extending into a beard.

He wore a large square cubic zircon type earring in his left ear, a light-grey knitted jumper and dark jeans.

The woman was unhurt in the incident, at around 5.45pm on Monday, February 25.
