Do you recognise this man? Police share images of suspect following serious sexual assault in Utrecht woods

Footage has also been released

Police have now released images and video footage of a man they believe could have been involved in a serious sexual assault in Utrecht town of Zeist last Friday.

A woman suffered what police have described as a “serious sexual assault” while walking in the woods near Prinses Mariannelaan on the outskirts of Zeist.

The man fled into the woods following the attack.

Do you recognise him?

Along with images, the police have released this footage of the suspect.

He is described as being:

  • Approximately 1.80 metres tall
  • Between 30 and 50 years old
  • Bald or with thinning hair
  • Speaks English with an Eastern European accent

He may have worn two different outfits on the same day. Police speculate he could have switched the above black tank top for a short-sleeved pink shirt, possibly with white lettering.

Police ask that if you see the man, call 112 immediately.
