A TEENAGER has been sexually assaulted on a Huddersfield bus.

The 17-year-old was attacked as she travelled on the 302 service which runs from Huddersfield town centre to Golcar.

The assault happened after a group of six people boarded the bus near Greenhead College and became rowdy.

One of the men in the group sat next to the victim and then sexually assaulted her before getting off the bus.

The incident happened at around 6pm last Thursday.

The suspect is described as dark skinned, in his mid-20s, about 5ft 10in tall and of medium build.

He has short black hair and had some teeth missing.

The suspect was wearing a purple T-shirt, dark jeans and was possibly carrying a jumper.

Anyone who saw the man or the group he was with can call Det Con James Bellhouse at Huddersfield CID on 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
