Three women sexually assaulted in the same park in under a week as man, 27, is arrested 

Three women have been sexually assaulted in the same London park in less than a week as police officers have arrested a 27-year-old man over the spate of attacks. 

The Metropolitan Police is appealing for witnesses and information following a series of sexual assaults that took place ‘in the vicinity of Shoreditch Park’ on June 15, 16 and 18.

They are also appealing for other potential victims to get in touch if they suspect they were assaulted by the same perpetrator. 

A statement from police said: ‘Officers are investigating three incidents that have taken place on 15, 16 and 18 June – on each occasion a woman has been approached by a man and sexually assaulted.

‘On 18 June a 27-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of sexual assault and remains in police custody.’

Detective Constable Francesca Clarke of Central East CID added: ‘While we are aware of three incidents that have taken place within four days, there is a distinct possibility that more offences have taken place but have not been reported.

‘I would urge any women who have been in the vicinity of Shoreditch Park and have been approached and sexually assaulted by a man described as Black, around 5ft 10 inches tall and of heavy build to get in contact immediately.’

Anyone with information is asked to call police on 101 or tweet @MetCC and quote CAD3148/16June. Information anonymously to the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
