Girl raped by bogus Asian taxi driver

A teenager was raped by a man posing as a taxi driver in Greater Manchester.

The girl had been out drinking in Ashton-under-Lyne on Saturday when she got into a car she thought was a taxi.

The driver pulled into an alley next to Kendal Terrace in Dukinfield and asked for an £8 fare, before climbing into the back of the car and raping her.

She managed to struggle free and ran off. Police are looking for an Asian man aged about 40 to 50 in connection with the attack.

Chubby cheeks

He is said to be of medium build with a round belly.

He had frizzy grey hair with flecks of black and white and a bushy beard that came down to his chest and was the same colour as his hair.

Police said he had chubby cheeks, a big nose and dark blotches on his skin.

He was wearing white or cream trousers and a long shirt.

The car is described as being possibly a Vauxhall Astra with black leather seats and with a Christmas tree air freshener.

Anyone with information is urged to contact police.
