A MAN offered a 15-year-old girl money to watch him perform a sex act in the town centre in broad daylight last weekend.

The driver of a small white van pulled up in a lay-by at around 5.40pm on Saturday, October 8, as the teenager approached Vigo Road from a footpath.

He offered her money to watch him perform a sexual act but the girl walked away and he drove off.

Hampshire Police have now released an e-fit of the man they would like to speak to in connection with the suspicious incident.

He is described as white, 30-40 years of age with short dark hair and a dark, stubbly beard and moustache.

Officers would like to speak to anyone who thinks they recognise the man in the e-fit image.

Anyone with information should contact Detective Constable Claire Boakes at Basingstoke CID on 101, quoting reference 44160380747, or call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
