66-Year-Old Woman Sexually Assaulted in Home...


Police have released an e-fit of a man they want to speak to after a 66-year-old woman was sexually assaulted by an intruder at her West Yorkshire home.

The man broke into the woman's home in Newsome, Huddersfield, in the early hours of Thursday while she was asleep.

After the assault he left the house through a bedroom window.

The attacker was described as an Asian man in his 20s or 30s. He was wearing a long-sleeved top. Police urged anyone with information to come forward.

Det Insp Nick Wallen, of West Yorkshire Police, said: "The victim of this attack is currently being cared for by specially trained professionals.

"Fortunately she was not physically harmed, but has been left badly shaken by what happened to her."

Two men aged 20 and 32 who were arrested in connection with the incident and later bailed have now been released without charge.
