Teenagers threaten woman in Cheltenham
Witnesses are urged to come forward
A woman in Cheltenham was reportedly sexually harassed by a group of teenage boys last Thursday evening (28 May).
The incident occurred around 7.50pm as the woman was walking down Winchcombe Street.
The boys, estimated to be between eight and ten in number, allegedly followed the woman while making sexually explicit comments, implying threats of rape.
The group is believed to consist of teenagers aged between 16 and 18.
The woman was not physically harmed but was left shaken by the encounter.
Police are actively seeking to identify the boys, described as being white, around 5ft 8ins tall, with brown hair, dressed in tracksuits, with some riding bicycles.
Officers are appealing to businesses in the vicinity with CCTV footage from that time to review their recordings.
They would also like to speak to any other women who may have been approached by these individuals.
In response to the incident, police will be conducting patrols in the area during the early evening to provide reassurance.
