A manhunt is underway after a serious assault in Dundee.
An elderly man and a woman were walking in Camperdown Park around 2.30pm on Sunday when the 70 year old was attacked.
He was taken to Ninewells Hospital with serious, but not life-threatening issues.
Police are looking out for a white man, aged 30-40, with short brown hair and stubble in connection.
Officers say he was wearing a red puffer jacket, dark bottoms and white Nike Air Max shoes, with red and black flashes.

I am asking for any members of the public who were in the park around the time of the incident, or who recognises the description of the suspect, to please come forward.
