Investigating officers have now released an e-fit of the man they would like to speak to in connection to the incident.

The suspect is white, in his early 40s, approximately 6ft tall and of slim build.

Investigating officer, Sgt Chris Conway, said: “If you know anything about what happened, saw the incident, or think the e-fit looks like someone you know, contact the police now and help us to catch this offender.”

Officers are investigating the possibility that the indecent exposure is linked to an incident that happened at a bus stop outside Clifton Comprehensive School on June 10.

Sgt Chris Conway added: “There are similarities between both incidents and as a matter or routine.”

Anyone with information should contact South Yorkshire Police on 01142 20 20 20 and quote reference 214 of the 22 July.
