A MUM has been sexually assaulted while playing with her kids in a park in broad daylight – as cops launch an urgent manhunt to find her attacker.
Police are searching for the man who spoke to the woman briefly before attacking her in Merton, south-west London, at 2.20pm on Sunday, October 20.
The woman was assaulted in Morden Recreation Park while she was with her family and playing with her children, cops said.
The suspect has been described as in his late teens, around 6ft tall and of skinny build.
Cops released an E-fit of the man in an appeal to the public to help find him.
He was wearing a burgundy hoodie with white writing on it, blue tracksuit trousers and black trainers, the Metropolitan Police say.
The suspect ran in the direction of nearby Canterbury Road after the assault.
Detective Constable Tom Green, a member of the local policing team, expressed concern about the recent assault incident. He acknowledged the impact of the assault on the local community, particularly because the victim was with her children when it occurred.
“I would ask you to take a close look at the E-fit. Do you recognise him, or the clothing that he was wearing? It is vital that we identify him.
“If you have any concerns, please speak with officers.”
