Officers have released an efit and CCTV footage of a man they would like to identify in connection with a sexual assault in Hove on August 15.
Police said the 20-year-old victim was approached by a man who sexually assaulted her at a bus stop in Sackville Road, between 4am and 5am.
According to officers, he then ran off along Sackville Road and into Frith Road, before heading out towards the Old Shoreham Road area and Hove Park.
The man is white, aged in his mid to late 20s, thin, with short straight hair.
He was wearing a red long sleeved round neck top and carried a dark coloured backpack.
Detectives believe he may have been in the Hove Park area earlier that morning before the incident.
Detective Constable Paul Thomas said:
"The victim is being supported by specially trained officers.
"We are keen to hear from anyone who recognises the man from the Efit or anyone who witnessed the incident or saw anyone acting suspiciously in the area."
Anyone with information is urged to report online or ring 101 quoting Operation Landgate.
