Cops hunt man after girl, 7, kicked in unprovoked assault in Dundee

Cops are hunting a man who allegedly attacked a seven-year-old girl at a Dundee shopping centre.

The child claims she was kicked in an unprovoked assault at the Murraygate entrance to the Wellgate Centre at around 4pm on Monday, September 7.

She was not injured but was left "extremely upset" and distressed.

Officers from Police Scotland want to trace a man who is described as of dark complexion, possibly Asian, aged in his 20s, about 6ft tall and heavy build, and was wearing a dark blue jacket at the time of the incident.

He was in the company of a woman wearing long pink clothing.

It is understood that a number of passers-by approached the family of the victim to offer assistance or inform them that they had witnessed the incident.

A Police Scotland spokesperson said: "We would like to speak to these potential witnesses as soon as possible.

"If you have any information that could assist our investigation, please call 101 or speak with any police officer.

"Also, information can be given anonymously through CrimeStoppers on 0800 555 111. Our reference is incident 2492 of 7th September."
