DETECTIVES are continuing to hunt a man who sexually assaulted a woman in the Townsend area of Bournemouth.

The incident happened between 11.30pm on Saturday August 10 and 12.15am the following morning when a woman, aged in her 20s, got off a bus and was assaulted in Woodbury Avenue.

The young woman was travelling on the number three Yellow Bus and alighted at Castle Lane West.

A short time later a man, who is believed to have been on the same bus, spoke to her before assaulting her in the pitch-black street.

Last weekend police released a CCTV image of a man they would like to speak to.

Dorset Police confirmed on Monday that no arrests have been made.
