A TEENAGE girl has been sexually assaulted while walking in a quiet Herefordshire village.
The assault took place near Wormelow's former Park Hall Ballroom between 10pm and 11pm on Wednesday, August 14.
The girl was approached and sexually assaulted by a man believed to have been socialising in the area as she walked near the old ballroom.
The attacker was one of a group of four men, all described as white and in their early to mid 20s.
Police believe they had been using an old white Ford Escort estate car on the night and were joined by an older suspect who was riding a three-wheeled motorcycle. Police are appealing for anyone who saw the men or the motorcyclist, or anyone who may know who they are.
DC Steve Perkins can be contacted at Hereford CID on 01432 276422 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555111.
