Manhunt after woman attacked in own home during terrifying rampage

Police have launched a manhunt after a woman was attacked during a terrifying rampage in her own home.

Michael Bullen, 43, is wanted by police in relation to the assault, theft and criminal damage in May this year.

Police say a man forced his way into an address, causing damage to the property, before assaulting the female occupant.

He is also alleged to have stolen a set of keys during the incident in Skelmersdale on May 5.

And police want to trace  Bullen, 43, of Wheatacre, Skelmersdale over the attack and are asking anybody who has seen him, or knows where he may be, to contact us as soon as possible.

He is described as white, 5ft 11ins tall, of medium build, with blue eyes and dark brown shaven hair.

He is also wanted for failing to attend court in February in relation to a previous assault which occurred in 2018.

PC Indi Ganly-Boast, of Skelmersdale Police, said: “We are appealing for information about Bullen’s whereabouts. 

“We would urge anyone who knows where he is to contact police immediately.”


Anyone with information is asked to contact police on 01695 566160 or 101, or email forcecontrolroom@lancashire.pnn.police.uk, quoting log 26 of May 8th 2019.
