Police have released an e-fit of a man they are seeking in connection with a series of sexual assaults around town. They have previously warned women in Cambridge to be vigilant when out at night, suggesting that six sexual assaults in the last four months may be linked to one man.

They have released an impression of the man, thought to be white, around 6 foot, with short dark hair and stubble aged between 20 and 30.  Deputy Seargent Phil Priestley of Cambridgeshire police has said, "I would urge anyone who recognizes the image to contact police. No piece of information is too trivial and may help us bring this offender to justice."

The attacks, some of which were on students, took place in Silver Street, Adams Road, Sidgwick Avenue and Granchester Meadows and are said to bare “striking similarities. In each of these incidents women had been “grabbed” as they walked alone at night and ‘touched sexually’. Each ended as the attacker ran off “when victims begin struggling or screaming”.

Police are continuing to increase patrols in the areas were the crimes were committed, and have spoken to officials at Cambridge and Anglia Ruskin Universities urging them to warn female students to be particularly cautious.
