Police are reiterating their appeal for the public’s help after a man was sexually assaulted in the city.
The incident happened just after midnight on the night of Saturday 25 February into the early hours of Sunday 26 February.
Two men gave the victim a lift and drove him from the centre of York to Melrosegate where they dropped him off.
Detectives are asking members of the public to cast their minds back to the weekend of 25 February if they were out in York that evening, and can recall giving a lift to a man in his 20s and dropping him off in the area of Melrosegate.
A police appeal in March did not result in the men coming forward and “officers would like to reiterate that they are witnesses, and not suspects in this case and their information could be vital to the investigation,” a North Yorkshire Police spokesperson said.
If you believe it’s you that helped the man, you can get in touch with police by email to DC Claire Hudson [email protected] or by calling 101, select option 2 and ask for Claire Hudson.
