Man sought after women indecently assaulted on bus

1:58 pm on 8 November 2010

Police are seeking a man who has been indecently assaulting women on a popular early morning Auckland bus service.

They say the man has been harassing women using the 7.15am Flyer bus service from Henderson to central Auckland.

Police say the allegations surfaced when several passengers said they had seen a man placing his hands on women's legs and positioning himself behind women so he could touch their backs.

Police believe a large number of women have been the target of the man's behaviour and some may have changed their travel schedules to avoid him.

Women who have been assaulted are advised to contact police.
