Do you know this man – police release images of man they want interview about three incidents where women were approached

Detectives have released these pictures of a man they want interview about alleged approaches to three women in the Sale Today area.

The man approached three women in Timperley, Sale and Ashton on Mersey.

Now police say they are carrying a search of the area and hope somebody can recognise the man in question from these pictures.

“The second incident happened at about 11.05pm on the same evening, when a 29-year-old woman was jogging on Harboro Road in Sale when a man approached her and blocked her path. He made a comment, suggesting that she went with him. The woman, feeling distressed, ran to a nearby house and called the police.

“Shortly after this, and before 11.20pm, a man approached a 17-year-old girl on Ashton Lane at the junction of Church Lane  in Ashton on Mersey and inappropriately propositioned her. She tried to leave but he pulled at her rucksack and clothes. She managed to escape and the offender fled.

Her mother gave the following description – he was aged 18-20, white slim build with ginger hair, wearing a grey hoodie with the hood up, beige jacket dark jeans with no facial hair.

The mother of that teenager tweeted about the incident as soon as her daughter got home.  She had had the presence of mind to call her mum to say the man was following her so her mum could come out a meet her..

As she met her daughter she described how the man walked on by but glanced over his shoulder at them.

She said:”He was very persistent and extremely inappropriate – he followed her to our house too.

“She was very shaken up but I’m determined to make sure she feels safe to go where she wants when she wants despite this horrible incident.”
