Police released details yesterday, and appealed for witnesses.

Pc Norman Watson said: "This was a distressing incident for the victim and we would like to appeal for the public's help in identifying the offender.

"This is a busy stretch of road and at the time the incident happened there would have been plenty of people making their way home from work."

The suspect is black, 5ft 8in and aged between 17 and his early 20s. He has short, black hair and is slim.

He was wearing a black vest top with a dark grey trim, black knee-length shorts and black trainers with fluorescent orange soles.

He was riding a BMX-style bike with a black frame and silver handle bars.

Anyone with information is asked to contact Pc Watson on 101, or Crimestoppers, which is anonymous, on 0800 555 111.
