Police are running a poster appeal for information about a man who indecently assaulted two girls at Alresford.

They have issued a description of the man who attacked the 11-year-olds in Jacklyns Lane as they were going home with their micro-scooters between 5.30 and 6pm on Thursday in last week.

He is described as aged from mid-20s to mid-30s; slim with collar-length, dark, greasy, combed-back hair and tanned with a pock-marked or scarred face. He was wearing dark trousers and a blue top.

Police say shoppers may have seen the girls as they headed down Broad Street, Station Road and Station Approach.

The following day, police announced they had arrested a 29-year-old man in connection with the assault.

He has since been released on police bail until September.

Detective Sergeant Janis Adair said: "This was a very disturbing attack. We urge anyone who can help us to contact us as soon as possible."

If you have any information about the attacks, contact Winchester CID on 0845-0454545.
