Police have issued a picture of a man who they would like to speak with after two women were attacked.

On June 7 police received a report of a sexual assault at the Billet roundabout underpass, Walthamstow at around 9.30am.

He is of a slim build, with short black hair and stubble. He has been described as ‘scruffy’ with a pock marked complexion.

Detective Constable Tom McGee of Waltham Forest Police said: “Due to the upsetting nature of these incidents I am very keen to speak to the man pictured. 

“The assaults involved the touching of the victims outside of their clothing and while this may not be as intrusive as a rape, the effects of such an assault can be devastating to the victim.

“While I don’t believe there is reason for alarm within the community, I do advise that a degree of care is taken by any women travelling alone.”
