He is about 1.7 meters tall, has tanned skin, short dark-brown hair and does not have a beard. He was wearing a brown jacket and a balaclava when he attacked. The police are urgently looking for anyone who may have noticed this man on Saturday morning. According to police spokesperson Ellie Lust, the victim cried out when being attacked.
