Man dragged woman towards alleyway in 'traumatic' Telford attack
A man tried to drag a woman into an alleyway after she had been to a cash machine in a "traumatic" incident this morning.
The woman was walking from the cash point in Grange Avenue, heading towards Sandino Road in Stirchley, Telford at around 6.45am.
The man attempted to pull her into a nearby alleyway but, fortunately, the woman was able to get away from the offender.
The man is described as white, approximately 5ft 7ins, aged between 20 and 30, and wore knee length shorts, a dark hoody and a dark scarf around his face.
PC Ruth Williams said: "This is an extremely worrying incident which would undoubtedly have been very traumatic for the woman involved. We are keen to speak to anyone who has information or may have seen the man described."
