Police investigating a sexual assault on a 13 year old girl in Sheffield have released an e-fit image of a man they'd like to identify.
The youngster was attacked near the duck pond at Charlton Brook in Chapeltown on Wednesday (8th February 2023) morning.
Investigating officer Wendy Howe said, "We continue to work with the victim and her family to identify the person responsible for this serious offence. We know that the incident has caused concern locally and would ask anyone with information about this matter to come forward, especially if you recognise the individual pictured.
"As I’m sure you will understand, this type of offence is highly traumatic and sometimes this means we get new information and new lines of enquiry as the victim is able to process what has happened. In our earlier appeals, we advised that this assault happened near Mount Pleasant Close, but we now believe that the girl was assaulted a little further off the main streets, in the wooded area close to the Chambers estate and Charlton Brook.
"I’d urge any residents living in the area to consider whether they heard or saw anything suspicious on Wednesday morning, or if they saw someone resembling this e-fit image."
