Police appeal after sexual harassment incident in Lincoln

The scared young woman managed to escape

We are investigating reports of threats made to a young woman on Silver Street in Lincoln in the early hours of Tuesday, 1 November at approximately 1.30am.

A man made an unwanted sexual approach that included a threat of harm. The young woman was understandably scared by this incident and fortunately was able to escape the scene.

We take reports of this nature incredibly seriously and we need to identify the man in this CCTV image as we believe he can help with our enquiries. If you recognise him, or you were in the area at the time of the incident, please contact us.
