POLICE have re-appealed for information in connection with a rape in Warndon Villages, Worcester.

The woman, in her 20s, was attacked on a public footpath between Woodgreen Drive to Plantation Drive, between 2am and 4am on Wednesday, June 15.

Detectives investigating the incident released an e-fit image of a man they are keen to speak to in connection with the rape.

The man is Asian, slim, around 5ft 11ins, and thought to be in his mid 20s.

He was clean shaven, and had black hair with a fringe.

At the time of the incident he was wearing a black zip-up hooded top, black tracksuit bottoms, and had a mild Indian accent.

Investigating officer, Detective Constable Alistair Mulcaster said: "Following the release of the artist's impression last month we have had a number of responses from the public.

"I would like to thank everyone who called us and provided information.

"We are continuing to investigate this matter and I would again like to appeal to the community for help in identifying the man in the image.

"I would ask anyone who was driving or walking near to Woodgreen Drive and the surrounding area on June 15 to try recall if they remember seeing anyone acting suspiciously.

"It may be that you dismissed something at the time but any information you have could prove vital to our investigation."

Following the attack West Mercia police increased patrols in the area, to reassure the community.

Anyone with information or who recognises the man in the picture is asked to call police on 101, quoting 62S.
