A man arrested in connection with an alleged serious sexual assault in Dundee has been released without charge.
Police Scotland confirmed the individual – whose name has not been released by the force – had been released pending further investigation.
He was arrested following reports of a serious sexual assault in Morgan Street in the early hours of Saturday morning.
Last night, a spokesman for the force said efforts are ongoing to trace a man in his thirties who they believed may be able to “assist” with inquiries.
Police Scotland stopped short of saying whether this is the same man arrested in connection with the incident.
He is described as having light brown hair, stubble, a Scottish accent and was wearing a dark blue jacket, dark hoodie and light-coloured jogging bottoms.
The man is also believed to have been driven or dropped off nearby by a small, dark vehicle.
The victim, a woman also in her thirties, was left badly shaken by the incident but was otherwise uninjured.
Detective Inspector Ray Birnie, of Tayside Division’s CID: “Inquiries are ongoing into the incident and I would like to appeal to the public to come forward if they have information which could assist us.
“If anyone recalls hearing anything or seeing anything in the Morgan Street area, including any vehicles, between 2-4am on Saturday morning then I would ask them to contact us.”
