Public appeal after Darley sexual assault and theft

Detectives from Moorabool Crime Investigation Unit are hoping to identify a man following an assault and theft in Darley last week.

It's understood the man attended an address in Darley between 9pm and 10.30pm on Thursday, 23 September.

The man assaulted a male victim in his 40s before stealing electronic equipment and fleeing the scene in a white hatch-back.

Police have today released an image of that vehicle as well a digitally-generated image of a man who they believe may be able to assist with their enquiries.

The man was perceived to be aged in his late 20s or early 30s about 180cm tall with olive skin, a stocky build and black curly hair with shaved sides.

He was wearing a white hooded jumper, grey shorts and white sneakers.

Anyone who recognises the man is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or submit a confidential crime report at www.crimestoppersvic.com.au
