Officers investigating a sexual assault in Hemel Hempstead have released an image of a man they would like to speak to as part of their enquiries.
It happened in an alleyway between Wolsey Road and Maynard Road at 2pm on Saturday, December 15.
The victim, a woman in her 50s, was walking in the direction of the hospital when she was approached by the offender, who attempted to engage her in conversation.
She carried on walking but the offender then touched the victim inappropriately.
The victim went into the hospital and the offender followed, but left when the victim began speaking to someone.
Detective Constable Katherine Stevens, from the Dacorum Local Crime Unit, said: “I want to reassure the victim and the community that we are doing all we can to identify the offender. We are following several lines of enquiry.
“Do you recognise the person pictured? We believe that he may have been in the area at the time of the incident and witnessed what happened, or have information that could help progress the investigation.”
