Hunt for Blackpool sex attacker

POLICE are hunting a vile pervert who attacked a woman in Blackpool town centre.

And they today issued a picture of their prime suspect in a desperate effort to catch him before he can strike again.

The attacker dragged his young victim into a doorway and carried out a serious sexual assault.

Police said the sickening attack took place some time between 2.45am and 3.15am yesterday on Adelaide Street West.

The 21-year-old victim was making her way home after a night out when she became separated from her friends.

It was then the sex fiend grabbed her from behind, forced her into an alcove and subjected her to what senior detectives have described as an "horrific" ordeal.
