A WOMAN was subjected to a terrifying sexual assault in Kingshurst, after being followed home on the bus.
Police revealed that the victim had been waiting to board a late night service in Birmingham city centre when she was approached by two men.
She later got on the No 55 and the pair got on the bus after a couple of stops. They sat next to the passenger and struck up a conversation again.
When she got off the single-decker service the men followed suit and one continued to follow her down the road.
West Midlands Police said: "He grabbed her in a sexual way and made suggestive comments and gestures towards her.
"She continued walking away when he pushed her against a car and continued to touch her inappropriately."
The victim managed to force her attacker off and fled home, where she called the police.
The force has said that the woman wasn't seriously injured but had been left "very shaken and scared" by the incident, which happened on May 26. The victim had first been approached at around 12.30am and the assault happened later the same night.
Officers have said that the suspect is an Asian man in his late 20s with short dark hair. He was wearing a brown coat and jeans. CCTV of the individual was this week released as part of a public appeal.Anyone with any information or who knows this man is asked to call detectives on 101, quoting crime reference 20SH/116583N/18.
