There have been no arrests made after a spate of indecent assaults in the Hawke's Bay region despite what police say has been a "good public response" to an appeal for information.
Police say the public has provided them with information after the release of CCTV footage yesterday featuring a man who is wanted for questioning over the incidents.
Yesterday police said they were looking to question the man after two separate assaults on women in the Hawke's Bay region were reported on Sunday morning.
Police say they are currently investigating a number of indecent assaults against women in public places in the Napier Hill, Taradale and Havelock North areas in the last few weeks.
"We have already received a good response from members of the public to our appeal for information and release of CCTV images of this man yesterday.
"We are looking into the information provided to us already, but hope that this video footage will give people a better chance to recognise this man and help us to identify him.
"Information provided by members of the community is critical to resolving offences such as this and preventing further assaults, so please do come forward if you can help," says Area Commander, Inspector Dave Greig.
Police urge anyone with information to ring Hawke's Bay CIB on 06 211 3872, or call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 if they wish to remain anonymous.
