Fresh appeal on third anniversary of rape of girl

Police want public help to find a man they believe can help the investigation

Police have re-released an e-fit of a man who could help them with an investigation into the rape of a 16-year-old girl.

Hertfordshire Police made the fresh appeal to mark three years since the incident in a wooded area between Hampson Park and Lonsdale Road in Stevenage.

The teenager was attacked some time between 12:00 (BST) and 13:00 on 30 May 2022.

Det Con Lauren Eifert from the sexual offences investigation team said: "This was a frightening ordeal for the victim and we never give up on cases like this."

"The man in the e-fit is believed to have important information about the incident and I am asking the public to once again take a look and get in touch if you recognise him," she added.

There will be an increased police presence in the area as leaflets are handed out as part of the anniversary appeal.
