Detective Inspector Alyson Keenan said: "We think the man pictured may have vital information to help our enquiries so if you know him, please come forward. If you recognise him, or these images jog your memory about any suspicious behaviour you may have seen, please do let us know.

"While several months have passed since the incident, any information you hold could be vital to our enquiries so please come forward, directly or anonymously and we will do the rest.”

You can pass on any information via DM @MerPolCC, ‘Merseyside Police Contact Centre’ on Facebook or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111 with reference 21000894544.
