Hunt launched for man after woman, 21, assaulted in Giffnock

Police are appealing to trace a suspect in connection with the assault of a woman in Giffnock yesterday evening.

The 21-year-old victim was walking on a path leading to the Muirend Pavilion when she was attacked by a man, who immediately fled the scene.

The incident happened at around 7pm.

Detective Constable Craig Stewart at Giffnock CID said: "The Muirend Pavilion is a busy place on week nights with both football and rugby training sessions taking place there. 

"I am appealing to anyone who may have been in the area of the pavilion to help us identify the following man who we want to speak to in relation to this attack. 

"He is described as being between 18 and 22 years of age, about 5'11/6' tall, slim build, sallow complexion and spoke with a Glasgow southside accent. 

"He was wearing glasses and had a dark coloured waterproof jacket on, with the hood up, jeans, and was carrying a rucksack. 

"Anyone who can help should call the CID at Giffnock on the 101 number, and quote the reference number 3250 7 January 2020.  Anyone who wishes to pass on information and remain anonymous can do so by calling Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111."
