Appeal after sexual assault in south Bristol
We are investigating a sexual assault on a teenager that happened in south Bristol.
The girl was walking along North Street, Dean Lane and Alpha Road with an unknown man in close proximity to her.
When she stopped, the man made a sexualised comment towards her and inappropriately touched her.
He continued to walk along Alpha Road, before making off along Southville Place and St Johns Road when a member of the public pursued him.
The sexual assault happened at about 3pm on Thursday 29 August.
We are releasing two images of a man we hope the public can help us identify as we wish to talk to him in connection with our enquiries.
