LITTLE MIX GROPER HUNT

- By NEIL GOODWIN

A WOMAN music fan was sexually assaulted as she watched her favourite bands in a crowd of 7,000 people at a festival.

Police yesterday issued a e-fit picture of the pervert who copped a sneaky feel in the crush – then quickly vanished into the crowd.

The victim, in her 30s, was watching Little Mix live on stage at the concert in Colwyn Bay, north Wales, when the man struck.

A police spokesman said: “A woman was in a crowd of around 7,000 people when she felt someone behind her.

“She was unsure if she had been accidental­ly touched but shortly afterwards she was sexually assaulted.

“She confronted the man and a number of others in the crowd turned to face the offender, with one woman speaking to him.

“With that he turned and disappeare­d in to the crowd.”

The e-fit picture was put together by the victim and is said to be a very good likeness.

Police are appealing for informatio­n about the sex assault at the Access All Eirias festival in July.

A spokesman said: “We are keen to speak to anyone who was in the vicinity at the time or anyone who recognises the man.”
