Police are appealing for information after a man committed a lewd act in Stroud.

At around 4.30pm on Wednesday, March 13, a woman was standing on the Sainsbury’s car park on Dudbridge Hill waiting to be picked up.

The woman noticed that a man was sitting in his vehicle, the man’s window was open and he shouted towards her.

At this point she could see that he was committing lewd act and moved away from the offender. No further contact was made between the two.

The man is described as in his late 20s or early 30s with blonde or light brown hair.

He was wearing dark clothing, possibly overalls or work wear. He was driving a silver “older” style car with a long ladder on the roof.

Anyone with information that could help the investigation should call police on 101 quoting incident 299 of March 14.

Information can also be given anonymously by contacting the charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111, or via www.crimestoppers-uk.org.

In some cases Crimestoppers offer rewards of up to £1000 where information leads to a conviction.
