Detectives in Camden Borough have today, Thursday, 17 December released CCTV footage of a man they want to speak to in connection with a sexual assault which took place in Kentish Town on Saturday, 5 December.
At around 01:45hrs that day a woman, aged in her 30s, was walking along Kentish Town Road, NW5 when a man started following her.
The man attempted to engage the woman in conversation in Kentish Town Road, but the woman ignored this and carried on walking.
After the woman turned right into Leighton Road, NW5 the man got in front of the victim and pushed her up against a parked van and sexually assaulted her.

When the victim then got her phone out the suspect ran off in an unknown direction.
Fortunately the victim was not seriously physically injured, but did suffer bruising where the suspected had held.
