Police are appealing for information following a reported offence of outraging public decency in Earlsheaton Park, Dewsbury.

The 29-year-old victim was walking along an isolated wooden path with an eight-year-old girl and another 29-year-old man between 6.45pm and 7pm on Tuesday, 17 May, when he has seen a man committing a lewd act. The man has made comments towards the victim and continued his actions.

The man is described as white, aged between 40 and 50-years-old, around 5ft 8ins to 5ft 9ins tall, of skinny build, with dark brown hair tied in to a ponytail. He had a cobweb tattoo under his right eye and was wearing black or navy jeans, white pumps and had a black bag on his back with string straps.

The victim has been able to provide a detailed description of the man involved, which includes a distinctive facial tattoo. We would urge anyone who believes they know the identity of this man to please contact us immediately.
