This is the CCTV image of a man police want to question in connection with two serious attacks
This is the man police are hunting after two lone women were attacked at knifepoint and slashed with a blade.
Extra police have been patrolling the Hounslow area of London after two women were assaulted within ten days of each other in night time attacks.
Police have issued an image of a man they want to question in connection with serious attacks on two young women within 10 days of each other.
A 19-year-old woman was approached from behind, grabbed by an attacker and cut with a bladed item across her neck in the first of the two assaults.
It happened shortly before midnight on August 7 in Hanworth Road, Hounslow, west London, near the junction with St Stephens Road, Scotland Yard said.
The second incident occurred on Friday, at about 1.30am, in nearby Whitton Road, near the junction with Murray Avenue.
A 26-year-old was approached from behind and sliced across her face with a bladed item.
Both women suffered deep cuts which required hospital treatment.
This may be a sicko or a Moslem attacking unveiled women, we need more info.
Could be both, Richard.
You are right.
