A young woman was sexually assaulted in a Scots town earlier this morning.
The 21-year-old had been walking down Pollock Avenue in Hamilton on Friday January 21.
At around 9.20am, she was approached by a man who pushed her to the ground and then attacked her.
The suspect ran in the direction of Pollock Avenue and was last seen running into the adjoining Argyle Drive.
He has been described as being between 20-35-years old, around 5ft 6ins in height, of a stocky build with short, brown hair.
The man had been wearing a dark grey tracksuit with his hood up, white trainers and a black face mark at the time of the assault.
Detective Sergeant Scott Boyle from Lanarkshire Police Division, said: “Although the woman did not require medical treatment, she was left very shaken by what had happened.
"I would appeal for anyone with any information, to come forward so we can trace the man responsible.
“The area would have been quite busy at that time of day, do you remember hearing or seeing anything around this time? Did you see a man matching this description?
“Officers are currently checking CCTV footage, however I urge anyone with dash-cam or home security footage in the area to come forward.”
