Girl attacked going to school
A 14-year-old girl who was indecently assaulted on her way to catch a bus fears taking her normal route to school.

The youngster was walking on Grosvenor Road in Aldershot, Hampshire, when she was attacked by a man.

Detectives said the victim believes the same man followed her two years ago, which was also reported to the police.

Police have now launched a fresh appeal for information relating to the second incident which happened on 18 December at 0750 GMT.

Her attacker was white, 6ft 2in tall, of thin build and in his mid 40s.

Victim traumatised

He had brown eyes and short brown hair and was wearing a pair of dark blue jeans, a white T-shirt and a denim jacket.

His jacket also had a hole in the right elbow.

Pc Steve Swan, of Hampshire Police, said: "This incident has left the victim very frightened about taking this route to school now.

"She was quite traumatised by it and we would very much like people's help in trying to find the man responsible."
