Jade Hayden

There is a renewed appeal for witnesses of an alleged sexual assault in Dublin.

Gardaí are seeking anybody with information relating to an attack on a woman in the early hours of Sunday morning on December 9.

The woman was brought from Serpentine Avenue through the city centre to Emmet Street in a white taxi. Gardaí believe the vehicle was parked for one hour between 2am to 3am.

The man in question is described as being aged between 27 and 35 years old, with short black hair and a beard.

He was wearing glasses and a short sleeved shirt.

Gardaí in Irishtown have released an Evofit – a facial composite – of the man in a bid to bring witnesses forward.

They have also released an image of the white taxi, appealing to anyone who may have travelled in a similar car in the early hours of December 9 to come forward.

Anybody with information, or dash cam footage, can contact Irishtown Garda station on 01 – 6669600, the Garda Confidential Line on 1800 666 111, or any Garda station.
