Girl, 13, sexually assualted in Chapeltown
WANTED:
As police in Sheffield continue their enquiries into the reported sexual assault of a teenager in the Chapeltown area, officers have worked with the victim to produce this e-fit of a man they would like to identify.
At around 8am on Wednesday 8 February, it is reported that a 13-year-old girl was sexually assaulted by a man while she walked through woodland near to the ‘duck pond’ and Charlton Brook. The victim – who cannot be identified for legal reasons – continues to receive support from officers. 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 informa-
tion 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.
