Can you help Nottinghamshire Police trace this man after sexual assault?

Police were called to Forest Recreation Ground in Nottingham, at around 12.30am on Sunday, December 22, last year after a woman was reported to have been assaulted.

Detectives have said they would like to speak to the man pictured, in CCTV images they have released, in connection with the reports.

A spokesman said they believe the man may hold “vital information” that could help them in their investigation into “what happened that night”.

They have also called on people to check their dashcam footage.

Detective Constable Laura Manley, of Nottinghamshire Police, said: “We are working hard to establish what happened that night and would like to thank the public for the help and information we have received so far.

“We are exploring a number of lines of enquiry and believe the man pictured could have information on what happened that night.

“If you recognise him or have any information, dashcam footage or witnessed the incident in Forest Recreation Ground on Sunday 22 December, please do not hesitate to get in touch. You may hold vital information that could help us solve this case.”

If you recognise the man or have any information that could aid detectives in their investigation, do not hesitate to contact Nottinghamshire Police on 101 quoting incident number 26 of 22 December 2019.
