A MAN who groped a girl on a bus may be responsible for two other sexual assaults.
At about 6pm on Monday, the man got on the No 63 bus at Middlesbrough Station. He spoke to the 16-year-old before fondling her. The girl got off the bus in Eston, the man stayed on, getting off in Redcar.
He is described as black, 30 to 40-years-old and fat. He was about 5ft 8in and had yellow teeth with gaps. He spoke with a foreign accent. He was wearing a black coat, a black tatty cap with white writing and had very short, curly black Afro hair. He was wearing wire-rimmed glasses and a grey and white shirt.
It is believed the same man kissed and fondled a 16-yearold on November 7, at about 4pm, on a bus between Norton and Hartlepool. He got off at Hartlepool Marina.
On October 31, at about 10.30am, a woman, 20, was on a bus in Hartlepool when a man touched her.
