Shopper indecently assaulted in Shoreditch
A shopper was indecently assaulted in Shoreditch and now detectives have released a CCTV image of a man they want to speak to in connection with the incident.
The 21-year-old victim, of Mile End, was in Boxpark Mall at about 4.30pm on Thursday, September 20, when two men and a woman walked into the shop.
Det Con Graeme Knox said: “One of the men then approached the victim and, after making inappropriate comments, he began to touch her.
“The victim told the man to stop before a witness shouted at the man and all three left the shop, heading towards Brick Lane.
“This must have been very intimidating for the victim and I would appeal for anyone with any information to come forward and help identify the man responsible.”
Anyone with information should call British Transport Police on 0800 40 50 40, quoting reference B5/LNA of 17/10/2012. Alternatively, contact independent charity Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
