Indecent assault on child
The Christchurch police seek information about an indecent assault of a girl, aged nine, in the grounds of Burwood Primary School on Saturday afternoon. The girl was molested after a man, aged between 20 and 25, stopped his car outside the school, in New Brighton Road about 2.50 p.m., and started to play with a group of children. He then took the girl away from her friends and indecently assaulted her. She was not physically hurt. Detective Sergeant Peter Gardiner said the man was described as European, about 178 cm (sft Bin) tall, with shoulder-length dark brown hair. He had a light brown moustache and wore casual clothing.
