Police have released a CCTV image of a man they want to trace after a young girl was sexually assaulted in a shop.
The incident happened in Poundland on Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow, at about 5.15pm on Friday, May 30.
Police have appealed for the man in the image to contact them as they believe he may be able to help them with their inquiries.
He is described as of Asian appearance, aged 40-49, about 6ft and of medium build.
He was wearing a white baseball cap, glasses, a navy blue jacket and light-coloured body warmer, blue t-shirt, dark denim jeans with the bottom turned up and was carrying a khaki-coloured backpack.
Inspector Kenny Darroch said: "I would appeal to anyone who was in Poundland on Sauchiehall Street around the time of the incident to contact officers.
"I would also ask anyone who can help identify the man in the image to contact Baird Street police office on 101."
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
