Police hunt suspect after teenager sexually assaulted

Police want to speak to a man after a teenage girl was sexually assaulted in Ashton. 

It's believed that a 14-year-old girl was followed from the bus station by a man who is suspected to have taken photos of her. 

Police say he then 'touched her buttocks' on Canterbury Street. 

The victim then ran home and reported the attack to police. 

After carrying out a number of lines of enquiry, officers have now released a CCTV image of man they want to speak to in connection with the assault. 

Anyone who knows who he is or has any information is asked to report it online at https://crowd.in/LP1ViA. Alternatively, contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
