Police are seeking information on a vehicle of interest involved in an indecent act committed in Epsom this week.

Officers have been investigating a complaint about a man’s behaviour towards a young student on the afternoon of February 12.

Detective senior sergeant Mark Greaves, area investigations manager for Auckland City East, says the investigation has progressed in recent days.

“We’ve now obtained an image of a vehicle in the Gladwin Road area on Tuesday afternoon,” he says.

“Police would like anyone who saw this vehicle, or has further information concerning it, to contact us.”

The incident occurred at about 3.35pm, when the sole male occupant of the vehicle began doing an act towards the young student walking past on Gladwin Road.

“Fortunately this man did not exit the vehicle, and it was last seen travelling down Lewin Road,” Greaves says.

“Anyone who has information, please contact police.

“I’d also encourage the driver of this vehicle, who knows who they are, to stop delaying the inevitable and come to speak with police.”

People with information can phone police on 105 using the reference number 250212/5501.

Information can also be provided anonymously via Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
