Sex attack on mum with baby in park

that the business could no longer trade.

The company, formed in 1985, had opened a showroom at Whiteley’s Garden Centre in Mirfield and said it had a “dramatic and positive impact helping to generate new business and improving margin.”

However, a changing market had led to a slowdown in sales and the decision was taken to cease trading. The firm’s Leeds showroom closed last month.

The decision to wind up the business was taken at a meeting which also appointed insolvency practition­ers Darren Brookes and Molly Monks, of Cheshire-based Milner Boardman and Partners, as joint liquidator­s.

Phone calls to Norwood Interiors were answered by a recorded message saying: “Unfortunat­ely, our showroom is now closed” and advising customers to email info@norwood.co.uk

A sign in the window at the showroom in Spring Street, Brighouse, reads: “Due to unforeseen circumstan­ces the showroom is closed. We apologise for any inconvenie­nce.”

The Examiner has contacted Milner Boardman and Partners for comment. A WOMAN pushing a baby in a pram was targeted in a vile sex assault in a Kirklees park.

The victim, a 31-year-old woman, was walking with the infant in Crow Nest Park in Dewsbury when she was approached by the man.

He began speaking to her and made inappropri­ate remarks before touching her. The victim managed to escape and left the park.

Police have described the suspect as an Asian man in his early 30s who is about 5ft 7in-8in tall with dark hair.

He was wearing all black clothing including a black body warmer.

Officers want to speak to anyone who may have seen the assault or the suspect after it occurred on Sunday, July 16, at about 4.50pm.

PC Carrie-Ann O’Keefe, of Kirklees Police, said: “Enquiries are ongoing regarding this sexual assault and we would like to speak to anyone who has informatio­n or who saw what occurred.

“We would also like to speak to anyone who saw a man fitting the suspect’s descriptio­n in the park shortly before or after the incident.

“Anyone who has informatio­n should contact myself, PC 4501 O’Keefe, at Kirklees Police on 101 or the independen­t Crimestopp­ers charity, anonymousl­y, on 0800 555 111.”
