Rapist attacks teenager

The woman was attacked outside the White House pub

Police are hunting a man who raped a 14-year-old girl in Greater Manchester after offering her a lift.

The girl left the Liquid nightclub in Oldham with friends but was walking alone along Horsedge Street at about 0215 BST on Saturday when the man drove up alongside her in a red car.

She got into his car and he drove her to outside the White House pub, in Henshaw Street, where he attacked her.

Greater Manchester Police are now investigating whether the man has attacked other women in the area.

Detective Constable Jason Ruff appealed for any victims to call police in confidence.

The rapist is described as white, 5ft 7ins to 5ft 9ins tall, stocky, with short dark gelled hair.
