Teenager Sexually Attacked In South Belfast
A teenage girl has been sexually attacked in south Belfast.
The 16-year-old was waiting at a bus stop on Chichester Street when a man sexually assaulted her.
The attack happened between 12.05pm and 12.15pm on Friday, 23 September.
The girl got on the bus but it is believed the male followed her.
A PSNI spokesperson said: "The male is described as being aged in his mid to late 40s with short dark hair that was shaved on the top, black stubble, thin square face with a tanned complexion, approximately 5'7" or 5'8" in height and of medium build. He spoke with a foreign accent and was wearing a burgundy or purple waist length coat.
"Police would like to hear from an elderly male with grey hair and beard, who let the female go ahead of him in the queue in order to get on the bus, and then sat near her as he may have information which would assist our enquiries."
