POLICE in Chard are hunting a sex attacker who wears trainers that are too big for his feet.

The youth, aged between 17 and 18, struck in Thorndun Park Drive between 10.45am and 10.50am on Wednesday June 25.

A 39 year old woman told police she was walking along with a small child in a pushchair when she was indecently assaulted.

The woman's attacker is described as having short brown, collar length hair, which was swept back. He had small facial features and possibly poor skin with spots.

Anyone with any information about the incident is urged to contact PC Phil Bagg at Ilminster Police Station or call Crimestoppers on 0800-555111.
