Police have released a computer-generated image of a man as part of investigations into the attempted abduction of a woman at Liverpool earlier in the week
About 4:20pm, Monday 13 January 2014, a 29-year-old woman was standing at the corner of Railway Street, near the intersection of Bigge Street, when a small red hatchback containing four men stopped in front of her.
A man got out of the front passenger seat and told the woman to get in the vehicle. When she refused, the man grabbed her and attempted to force her into the car.
The woman shouted out before the man let go of her and left in the vehicle.
Detectives from Liverpool Local Area Command are continuing investigations into the incident and have released a computer-generated image of a man they would like to speak to.
He is described as being of Mediterranean/Middle Eastern appearance, olive complexion, aged in his mid 20s, 170-175cm tall with a medium build, brown close-shaved hair, facial stubble, brown eyes and hairy arms.
At the time he was wearing a navy t-shirt, a thick gold chain around his neck, beige cargo pants and white sports shoes.
Liverpool Local Area Command’s Acting Crime Manager, Inspector Dean Johnstone, has expressed his concern over the incident and appealed for witnesses to come forward.
“This was a random and brazen attack committed in broad daylight which has left a young woman scared for her safety.
“At that time of the afternoon Railway Street would have been busy and I would ask anyone who witnessed the incident, or saw the car travelling through the area, to come forward.
“We have also released a computer-generated image of the man and urge anyone who recognises his face and may know who he is to contact police,” said Inspector Johnstone.
Police are urging anyone with information about this incident to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or use the Crime
