An investigation is underway after a 17 year old girl was sexually assaulted in Farnham.

At around 5:30pm on Wednesday evening (23 February) the victim was walking along the Borelli Walk, alongside the River Wey, when she was approached by a group of three or four boys.

One of them exposed himself before sexually assaulting her.

The girl managed to get away and continue walking.

The boy is described as Asian, aged 17 to 18 years old, around 5ft 9 in height with shortish black hair.

He was wearing a light coloured, quilted puffer-style jacket and black tracksuit bottoms.

Police Constable Davina Smith said:

"We must hold these suspects to account for their inexcusable behaviour.”
