Police re-appeal to find sex attacker

OFFICERS investigating a sex attack believe that they hold the offender’s DNA and have re-appealed for witnesses.

A woman was grabbed and pushed into Mansion Fields Park, Bolton-on-Dearne, where she was allegedly sexually assaulted.

It is believed the victim, in her early 20s, put up a struggle—bending the offender’s finger and biting his left cheek.

His identity is unknown but police say the DNA evidence can quickly eliminate people from the investigation.

They have appealed for witnesses or anyone who noticed a friend or partner with a facial bite mark or finger injury after the 2am attack on May 15.

The offender is described as white and muscular, early 20s with short, dark hair.

Officers would also like to trace a witness who helped the woman home.
