At around 9.30pm on Saturday 16 October 2021 a 13-year-old girl was waiting for a taxi at the Winton Recreation Ground by Heron Court Road when a man pulled up in a green car. He got out and grabbed her before touching her inappropriately over her clothing.
The offender is described as white, aged in his 20s with blue eyes and blond hair. He had no facial hair and was wearing a number of necklaces and earrings. He was also wearing a black jumper, beige trousers and a blue cap.
The car is described as a green Jeep-style vehicle with clear windows and beige-coloured seats.
