TWO 16-year-old girls have been indecently assaulted by three men who led them to Pitcheroak Woods and then touched them in a sexual manner.
Between 8-9.15pm on Monday, August 6, the girls were walking along Bromsgrove Road, between Cherry Tree Walk and Willow Way, when they were approached by a man who appeared to be doing a survey. He started asking them questions and was then joined by two other men.
The girls tried to walk off but the men obstructed them and led them into the woods where the assault took place. All three males are described as Asian.
Pc Steve Woodman, from Redditch police, said: "We're interested in speaking to anyone who saw these men in the Bromsgrove Road area yesterday or saw them with the girls in the woods.
"Understandably this was a distressing experience for these girls and it's important we identify the males involved. There will be targeted patrols in the area while investigations continue."
Anyone with information can call Redditch police on 08457 444888 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555111.
