Police are appealing for information after a teenager was sexually assaulted while he waited at a bus stop in Clydebank.

The 15-year-old boy was at the bus terminal on Chalmers Street at 11.20pm on Monday June 1, when he was approached by a man, who engaged him in conversation and then sexually assaulted him.

Cops are looking to trace the man who left the scene on board a number 60 bus.

At the time the man, described as black and in his late 20's, was wearing a black cap and a grey t-shirt with white shoulders.


Detective Sergeant Bernadette Wall said: "The boy was shocked but physically unhurt by the incident.  He moved away from the man and watched him get on board a number 60 bus and leave the area. 

"We are keen to trace the man, described as black, 5ft 10 inches in height, aged in his late 20's, foreign accent but spoke English.

"He was wearing a black baseball cap, a grey spotted t-shirt with  white on the shoulder, dark coloured bottoms, earring within left ear and carrying a black backpack with a water bottle within the side compartment which was wrapped within a plastic bag.

"We have been carrying out enquiries to establish the identity of the man and we would appeal to anyone who may know who the man is to get in touch with Police Scotland on 101, quoting 4885 of 1 June."
