A WOMAN in her 70s was allegedly sexually assaulted in an alleyway, as cops release an e-fit of a man in connection with the attack.

The incident reportedly took place at around 11.55am on August 6 in an alleyway in Langley, Berkshire.

The woman was passing through the walkway when the man allegedly approached her and started a conversation.

He then reportedly began touching her and asking intimate questions, including whether she was married and asking for her telephone number.
