Clubbers to help over sex attacks

The man offered women free nightclub tickets

Clubbers in the West End have been asked to help catch a sex attacker who has struck at least three times.

A man posing as a nightclub promoter has attacked three women in the past few months, police have said.

On Friday night officers went into Piccadilly to ask pub and club-goers for information about the attacks.

The man would strike as women left clubs or bars, chatting to them and offering them free tickets before walking them to a quiet area.

CCTV images of the man, described as about 6ft tall, dark-skinned and in his late 20s, have been released by police.

The first victim was attacked in October and police have since linked two more assaults to the case.
