Police have released an e-fit image of a man wanted after a woman in her 60s was subjected to lewd comments while walking in Ladbroke Grove.
The woman was pushing a shopping trolley on St Charles Square at 10.45pm on Sunday, July 31 when she was approached by a man who offered to help.
She declined his offer but the man made overtly sexual comments and rubbed himself over his clothing, police said.
The suspect is described as a black man aged in his mid 30s with a tight afro. He spoke with a London accent. He was wearing a brown leather pilot jacket with fur trim collar and cuffs, and grey tracksuit bottoms.
PC Jamie Perry said:“While the woman was not physically harmed this incident was extremely distressing for her.
“The behaviour of this man is disturbing – he approached a lone woman, initiated a conversation before making lewd remarks.
“I would ask anyone who recognises the person in this e-fit to come forward and speak to the police immediately.”
