A hunt is underway for a group of boys who started making crude remarks towards a girl before two of them sexually assaulted her.

The girl was walking through Nutsford Vale Park, Levenshulme, Greater Manchester, when around five or six boys, described as being Asian and aged between 13 and 15, approached her.

The incident happened at 9.15pm on June 6 and police yesterday issued an appeal for help tracking the attackers down.

The girl was near the gates to the park on Matthews Lane and she managed to run away but was left shaken up by the ordeal. She is now receiving support.




PC Georgina Denby said: ‘Understandably the teenage girl was terrified by the group of males and extremely upset by what happened. Fortunately she managed to get away from them and run from the park.

‘Specialist officers are continuing to support the victim and we are working hard to find those responsible.

‘We are now appealing to members of the public who were in the park or the nearby area that night, who may have seen the group of teenage boys matching the description or the girl running from the park, to contact us.

‘You may have thought you saw something suspicious at the time but decided not to report it, in which case don’t hesitate to get in touch.’

Witnesses being urged to contact police.
