On Monday 23 May 2022, we received a report that a teenage boy had been attacked in woodland near the town centre on Sunday 8 May 2022 between 5pm and 7pm.
The suspect is described as a white male aged in his 40s or 50s, about 6ft 4 inches tall, skinny with wrinkly skin and long, unkempt fingernails.
