Police hunting a sexual predator, who molested a 13 year-old girl early one morning, have released this CCTV image of their suspect.
The teenager reported being approached by a man in Norfolk Road, Thornton Heath at 6.48am on November 21, last year.
The suspect grabbed the victim, dragged her along the road, and sexually assaulted her.
Following a struggle the girl managed to escape.
The suspect is described as a black male, 5ft 6ins tall, with hair in cornrows.
At the time of the offence he was wearing a black puffer jacket, grey trousers and black shoes.
Detective Constable Penelope Rea investigating said: “I am very keen to hear from anyone who can identify the male in the picture.
“If you think you have seen this male or know who he is please get in touch.
“Your call could remove a criminal from your area or you could help eliminate someone from our enquiries.”
The child continues to be supported by specially trained officers.
