Around 4am today, Wednesday 11th September, a woman reported a rape in Albert Park in Middlesbrough.
A male made off from the scene and enquiries are ongoing to trace him.
The woman is being supported by specially trained officers.
The suspect is described as a black male, around 30 years of age, of slim build, around 4ft 11” to 5ft 2” tall, wearing a long, black parka jacket which is described as “scruffy” and he had his hood up. He was riding a pedal bike.
The man is believed to have been in the Gresham area prior to the incident; in the areas of Parliament Road, Linthorpe Road, Granville Road, Woodlands Road and Park Lane.
Officers would appeal to anyone in these areas to check private CCTV footage for a male matching the description.
Anyone who may have information is asked to contact Middlesbrough CID on 101, quoting reference number 175064.
