Sexual assault incident probed

Sexual Crimes Squad detectives are hunting for a man who allegedly sexually assaulted a woman in Geelong on 13 September.
The 41-year-old woman told police she was at a bus stop on Moorabool Street about 9am when an unknown man approached her.
The pair struck up a conversation and the woman got into his car parked opposite the bus exchange.
The man, believed to be aged in his late sixties or seventies, drove to an unknown location where he reportedly sexually assaulted her.
He then drove the woman back to Geelong and dropped her off near James Street about 1pm.
The man is Caucasian in appearance with grey hair and a solid build.
He was wearing a dark coloured jumper and pants, and was carrying a blue and white umbrella, police said.
Investigators have released an image of the man who may be able to assist with their inquiries, along with an image of a dark Holden wagon.
Anyone who has information about the incident or the man’s identity is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or submit a confidential crime report at www.crimestoppersvic.com.au.
