He also had one of his arms in a red cast, was carrying a backpack and had a mask covering his face at the time.

A 16-year-old boy was arrested on suspicion of sexual assault shortly afterwards and has since been released on conditional bail.

Police are continuing to investigate the incident and have asked for anyone who has any information to come forward immediately.

PC Jack Millichip, of Nottinghamshire Police, said: “This was a very serious offence that understandably left the victim completely distraught.

“It’s important that anyone who saw someone matching this description in the area around the time of this incident contacts us.

“Anyone who has any information, however small or seemingly insignificant, CCTV or dash-cam footage, should report it so that we can establish who might have been responsible.

“Information can be reported either to the police by calling 101, quoting incident 516 of 7 February 2023, or to Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.”
