Police have released a picture of two youths they want to speak to after the victim was assaulted on the bus travelling between Walsall town centre and Bloxwich on October 24.

Walsall Police posted on Facebook saying: "Do you know who these two lads are?

"We know the image is grainy but we want to speak to them after a 14-year-old girl was sexually assaulted on a bus travelling between Walsall town centre and Bloxwich on Saturday 24 October.

"Two youths got on the bus at about 5pm and one sat next to the girl, the other on the seat in front, and they began talking to her.

"She felt uncomfortable and as she got off the bus one of the youths touched her on the bottom, which left her feeling very upset.

"Anyone who knows who either of the lads in the image are, can contact us via live chat at west-midlands.police.uk, or call 101. To tell us what you know, not who you are, call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111. Please quote crime reference number 20WS/264129M/20."
