Urgent manhunt after reports woman was sexually assaulted in west London
Police have launched a manhunt after a woman in her thirties was reported to have been sexually assaulted while walking home near a London Tube station. The victim was followed by a man as she walked past Hammersmith Tube station, located in west London, at around 3.40am on Sunday, according to the Metropolitan Police. The man, who is then said to have caught up with the woman, sexually assaulted her before running towards Hammersmith Broadway. Police are now looking to speak to the man in the CCTV in connection with the incident. He was wearing a black North Face jacket, black trousers and white trainers at the time of the alleged assault and is approximately 5ft 8in to 6ft tall. Following the reported incident, he was then captured running along Park Road towards Browning Avenue before officers eventually lost sight of him as he headed in the direction of a residential area. Detective Superintendent Lucy O'Connor, leading the Met's investigation, said: 'Women and girls should be safe to walk the streets of London without being attacked. That is why we need to identify a man in connection with this incident and are now asking the public to help. 'If you were in the area on the morning of Sunday, 18 May or if you recognise the man in the footage, please contact us as soon as possible.' Anyone with relevant information is urged to call 101 providing the reference 01/7513051/25 or message @MetCC on X.

Jeep Avenger 4XE is truly impressive rugged 4x4 capable of going properly off-grid… just make sure to add vital extra
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) NORTH Face catalogue photos. You know the ones I mean.

I have a question. How did they get all that stuff there? Not only what's pictured — everything we don't see. The camera kit, lighting, wardrobe options, catering for the crew. My guess is in a Jeep. The OG 4x4. Built for going properly off-grid. I suppose it was only a matter of time before Jeep and North Face hooked up for a collab. So this four-wheel-drive Avenger 4XE comes with a North Face base tent and pop-up camping table in the boot. It really does. Jeep shares first photos of new 'Wrangler-like' model ahead of late 2025 launch – but drivers have crucial question Plus lots of mountain contour detailing in 'summit gold'. Actually, there's a bit more to it than that. This special edition, limited to 4,806 cars (that's the height of Mont Blanc in metres), has rucksack-inspired seat backs complete with elastic straps and pouches.

Thick rubber mats protect the floor from muddy boots and paws. You'll find '4,806' and more mountain contours, like the red squiggles on an Ordnance Survey map, stamped across the dash. Every Avenger has a bucket-sized central storage bin with a flip-up lid, and a slick central touchscreen mixed with hard controls.

We crossed that stream three, four, five, six times . . . just because we could. We crawled up steep banks of wet grass in a farmer's field with ease, then tip-toed back down again using hill descent control. Truly impressive. It's never going to be as heroic as a Wrangler but it is worthy of the seven-slot grille Try that in some bigger family SUVs and you'll be heading home on foot. 5 What impresses most is how capable this junior Jeep really is Credit: Supplied The cheapest front-wheel drive Avenger costs £26k and is powered by a cheery 1.2-litre petrol engine. That's fine for townies. Or they might prefer an electric one from £30k. For those living in the green bits of Great Britainland, the 4XE starts at £31k. Hike in slippers That's a 1.2-litre petrol mild hybrid paired with two 21kW e-motors on the front and rear axles and a six-speed auto. The car automatically sends torque wherever it senses wheel slip. Just point it in the right direction, gently squeeze the accelerator pedal and let it do the rest. One thing to note. Tyres. Massively important. Huge. Kenton Cool doesn't hike in slippers. So our test car rolled on chunky Falken Wildpeak all-terrain tyres. They're mint for biting through snotty surfaces — and worth the extra road noise on normal roads. Ask your dealer nicely and they'll sort them for you. So, that's the Jeep Avenger 4XE.
