CCTV images have been issued by police in a bid to find the person responsible for sex attacks on women in York.

Enquiries have been ongoing into two potentially linked incidents involving a man who allegedly sexually assaulted women who were walking alone in the city.

The first incident occurred on a cycle track off James Street at around 8.50pm on Sunday, September 24.

The second happened in the Navigation Road area at around 12.30am on Tuesday, September 26.

The attacks led to the police stepping up their patrols in the city.

A 28-year-old local man was arrested in connection with both incidents following the release of an e-fit description and was later released under investigation.

Following further enquiries, CCTV images of the suspect have been recovered by the investigation team who are appealing for people to come forward with any information that may assist the case.

Anyone who recognises the man in the images should contact the York Serious Crime Team on 01609-643279.
