INQUIRIES are continuing into two serious sexual assaults in a North-East town.
The attacks, which are not being linked by police, took place in Darlington, County Durham, last week.
The first was on Bank Holiday Monday when a woman was subjected to a serious sexual assault while walking in Green Lane.
The attack took place while the woman, who is in her 30s, was walking her dog behind her two children who had cycled ahead.
Her attacker is described as aged between 14 and 17, 5ft 8in, of stocky build with a round face and honey-blond hair. He was wearing a blue top.
The second assault took place last Wednesday at a lorry park in Chesnut Street, Darlington.
A 29-year-old woman was attacked by a knife-wielding man who is described as a black man, aged about 30, of medium build, with short, dark hair, and wearing dark clothes.
Detectives would like any potential witnesses or anyone who has information about the crimes to contact them on (01325) 467681 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555111.
