The Sun2 days ago

POLICE are urgently hunting a suspect who 'sexually assaulted' two women in their 20s within 15 minutes — as they release an e-fit of the man.
The Metropolitan Police has released an e-fit image of a man believed to be responsible for the assault of two women on March 9 in Islington, North London.
The suspect is said to be a skinny man who wore a light coloured T-shirt, a dark bomber jacket and a dark baseball cap at the time of the attack.
Police revealed that he is estimated to be in his 30s, according to the two victims.
The two women were targeted just 0.4 miles apart while they walked the streets of Islington at around 8.40pm.
The first victim told police she was followed down Cruikshank Street by a man who then sexually assaulted her.
Minutes later, another woman in her 20s was walking along Britannia Street when a man approached her from behind, sexually assaulted her, and fled.
No arrests have been made so far, but police are treating the two cases as linked.
Police have issued an urgent appeal for witnesses who saw a man matching the e-fit on March 9 to come forward.
Anybody who witnessed either of the assaults - or who has potentially relevant information - should contact 101, quoting investigation reference 01/7265403/25.
