Teenager manages to escape in abduction attempt, e-fit issued: Oldham

At around 2.30pm on Sunday 20 November 2011, the victim was walking home along Werneth Hall Road.

As she reached Kensington Road, a blue Renault Megane pulled up in front of her and a man got out.

He told her to walk to him but when she refused, he gripped her wrist, pulled her towards him and put her in the front passenger seat of his car before driving off.

The man stopped in the car park of Alexandra Park before the victim managed to open the door and run off.

The victim phoned family who alerted the police.

The offender is described as:

  • an Asian male
  • large build
  • aged in his 30s
  • 5ft 5in tall
  • balding hair
  • distinctive black spots around the lower part of his face
  • wearing a black jacket and a grey cap
  • spoke with a local accent

Now police have issued an efit of the offender.

Detective Constable Simon Moyles from Oldham CID said:

"Thankfully the victim escaped unharmed but she and her family have been left shaken by the ordeal.

"Understandably, residents will be concerned about this incident but I can assure them that we are working very hard to catch the offender and cases like this are rare.

"The description of the man is detailed and I would urge anyone who recognises the image to contact police as soon as possible."

Anyone with information should phone police on 0161 856 8951.

Alternatively call Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555 111.
