Police are searching for a man after a woman in her 60s was sexually assaulted in Eltham.
At around 7.20pm on Sunday, May 16, the victim was walking in a park just off Glenesk Road when she was approached by an unknown male.
The male pushed her into bushes and sexually assaulted her.
As she shouted at him, the male punched her in the face and then ran off.
He got into a black 4×4 type vehicle and drove off.
The suspect is described as aged between 20-40 years old, of muscular but slim build and wearing all black clothing including a jacket, hoody, trousers and trainers.
