Police launch last-ditch appeal to find sexual assault witness

An appeal has been launched by Nottinghamshire Police for help identifying a man who could have been a witness to a serious sexual assault.

The incident occurred overnight in Nottingham city centre between Friday October 10, and Saturday October 11, last year.

Pictured below is the man detectives are trying to identify as part of their on-going enquiries. He was pictured on CCTV in the Goosegate area of the city after leaving the BZR nightclub with the victim.

Can you identify this man?

Detective Constable Amy Hall from Nottinghamshire Police said: “We know there is a desire for public appeals to be made as soon as possible after an incident, but this is simply not possible in every case where we must ensure we have gathered and considered all available evidence. This can take time.

“We hope the public can help to identify the man pictured in this footage which has only recently become relevant to the investigation.”

Anybody who recognises the man, or who has any information about the assault, is being urged to contact Nottinghamshire Police on 101, or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111, quoting incident number 303 of 11 October 2014.
