Police are still making enquiries to locate a man after he attacked a woman in City Bank Park around 2pm in Cirencester yesterday.
He has been described as being white and was wearing black clothing which included a hooded top with the hood up, a snood, tracksuit bottoms and dark trainers.
The offender was not wearing a black puffer jacket as previously reported.
The man had approached the woman, aged in her 30s, from behind and then threatened her with a knife. He sexually assaulted her by grabbing her breasts and then pushed her over.
The offender fled the scene in the direction of Watermoor Road and police are keen to hear from anyone who lives in the surrounding area who may have CCTV or dashcam footage which could assist.
The victim was assessed at the scene by paramedics and did not require hospital treatment. She is very shaken by what happened.
It is believed those involved are not known to each other.
Detective Sergeant Sophie Dawkins said: “This was a terrifying attack and we’re working hard to locate the man who was responsible.
“During the early stages of the investigation we’d been told a man had also followed a woman near to Tesco Express on Chesterton Lane this afternoon.
“Following further enquiries, we’re no longer treating this as being connected to the incident, and no crime is believed to have occurred on that occasion.
“House to house enquiries are taking place in the area and there will continue to be a visible police presence.”
