Police want to hear from anyone who may have seen an attack of an 18-year-old woman in Stuart St last weekend.
The woman reported to police yesterday that she was walking up the northern side of Stuart St, near Cargill St, on Sunday between 7am and 8am, when a male approached and stopped to talk to her, Detective John MacDade, of Dunedin, said.
He pulled her into a nearby drive, pinned her against a wall and tried to pull her jacket off and lift her dress, he said.
The woman kicked the man and ran off down Cargill St, Det MacDade said.
She was uninjured.
The alleged offender was described as Caucasian, 30 to 40 years old, just under 1.8m tall, of solid build and with short, light-coloured hair.
"Police would like to hear from anyone who may have been in the area at the time who may have witnessed anything," he said.
